Scaling & Root Planing

Scaling and root planing performed on back of teeth

This two-part process removes plaque from around your teeth and gumline, then smooths and reshapes the tooth roots to make it harder for bacteria to reattach in the future. Scaling and root planing restore gum health while also lowering the risk of reinfection over time.

LANAP Laser Gum Disease Treatment

LANAP Laser Therapy Center

LANAP, or Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, is an innovative solution that preserves healthy gum tissue without invasive scalpels and sutures. As an FDA-cleared laser treatment, the device kills bacteria and removes infected tissue with incredible precision, enabling gum and bone regeneration during a shortened recovery period.
