LANAP Dentist Near Me

We use 3D imaging technologies to understand the internal anatomy of your mouth. Traditional x-rays provide static images of your teeth, and you need multiple exposures for different angles. However, our 3D imaging technologies allow us to produce a comprehensive and accurate image of your oral anatomy from different angles with just one exposure. This allows us to identify the earliest signs of gum disease and inflammation, which empowers us to address the root cause of inflammation before it affects your oral health.

In traditional dentistry, dental professionals use handheld mirrors to examine the internal structures of your teeth, gums, and mouth. However, intra-oral cameras have significantly improved diagnostic capabilities, giving dentists better access to information. An intra-oral camera is a pen-like device with a camera attached at the end. When it’s moved around your mouth, it transmits accurate real-time visuals on a computer screen, allowing the dentist to trace the root cause of your inflammation and gum disease.

The PerioLase MVP-7 is a variable pulsed dental laser used for various laser dentistry procedures, including the LANAP laser treatment for gingivitis. This device features 7 pulse durations, which allows us to calibrate it according to your specific goals and requirements. Our laser dentist uses this technology to address the root cause of gingivitis. It vaporizes the damaged and diseased gum tissues without harming healthy gum tissues, thereby ensuring safe, consistent, and impressive results.
