For Chantilly residents seeking lanap laser treatment, our board-certified periodontists provide exceptional results at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in Reston. LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is an FDA-cleared laser protocol for treating moderate to severe periodontal disease without cutting or suturing, using a specialized PerioLase laser.

LANAP selectively removes diseased tissue and bacteria while leaving healthy tissue intact, stimulating the body to regenerate bone and create a new connective tissue attachment to the tooth root.

Frequently Asked Questions
LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) FAQ for Chantilly Patients
How is LANAP different from traditional gum surgery?
LANAP uses a specific wavelength laser (Nd:YAG) to selectively remove diseased tissue and bacteria from periodontal pockets without cutting or suturing the gums. Traditional osseous surgery requires incisions, tissue reflection, and sutures. LANAP results in less pain, swelling, and recession, with faster recovery.
Can LANAP regrow bone lost to gum disease?
Yes — published research shows LANAP can stimulate new bone growth and true periodontal regeneration, including new cementum and periodontal ligament attachment. This is one of the few non-surgical periodontal treatments with FDA clearance for true regeneration, not just disease management.
How many visits does LANAP treatment require?
LANAP is typically completed in two sessions, about one week apart — treating one half of the mouth at each visit. Each session takes approximately two hours. Follow-up visits for healing assessment occur at one week, one month, three months, and six months post-treatment.
Is LANAP covered by dental insurance?
Many dental insurance plans cover LANAP under periodontal surgery benefits, though coverage varies by plan. Since LANAP achieves comparable or better outcomes than traditional surgery, most insurers process it similarly. Our office will verify your benefits and provide a detailed treatment estimate before proceeding.
