Revolutionary Gum Disease Treatments: LANAP® and LAPIP

At Tulip Dental, we are proud to offer advanced gum disease treatments using cutting-edge technology. LANAP® and LAPIP™ are two remarkable procedures that utilize powerful and safe lasers to address the underlying issues of gum disease. This less invasive bladeless technique brings forth exceptional outcomes in various periodontal treatment procedures. Unlike traditional methods, these treatments are minimally invasive, allowing for the removal of bacteria and damaged gum tissue while preserving the healthy tissue.

For patients with periodontitis, LANAP treatment is a game-changer. Our skilled periodontists employ lasers to eliminate the need for scraping, cutting, or sutures, providing a more comfortable and faster healing experience. LANAP promotes restoration and healing in areas affected by gum disease, helping patients regain a healthier mouth.

If you are experiencing complications with dental implants due to peri-implantitis, LAPIP is the solution you need. This condition occurs when the gums around the implant are attacked by bacteria, similar to gum disease. With the LAPIP protocol, our specialists can stimulate the regeneration and reattachment of healthy gum tissue to the implant, rescuing failing dental implants.

Are you facing issues such as loose dental implants, swollen gums, or persistent bad breath? These may be signs of gum disease. At Tulip Dental, we offer LANAP and LAPIP as minimally invasive treatments to address your concerns effectively. Say goodbye to discomfort and hello to a healthier smile. Contact us today to determine if LANAP or LAPIP is the right gum disease treatment for you.
