Restore Your Smile with Leading-Edge Laser Gum Procedures
Bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, and gum recession often signal the progression of gum disease. Many hesitate to seek treatment because they worry about traditional gum surgery, discomfort, and long recovery times. With LANAP laser gum disease treatment in Reno, NV, we offer a modern solution that treats infection with a minimally invasive approach.
LANAP, or Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, is an FDA-cleared protocol that uses a specialized dental laser to treat moderate to advanced periodontal disease. As a highly effective form of laser periodontal therapy, LANAP removes harmful bacteria while helping healthy gum tissue reattach to the tooth.
Advanced periodontal disease can damage the bone and tissue that support your teeth. Laser periodontal therapy at Sierra Nevada Periodontics & Implant Dentistry can help to reverse these uncomfortable symptoms, stop the condition from progressing, and even restore lost bone volume.

Laser gum disease treatment uses a highly precise dental laser to eliminate infected tissue and harmful bacteria below the gumline. The laser energy sterilizes the area and encourages the surrounding tissue to heal. This process supports healthy gum reattachment and helps stabilize teeth affected by periodontal disease, often without the need for bone grafts.
Our team begins with a detailed examination of your gums, teeth, and supporting bone. Digital imaging and periodontal measurements help us determine the severity of infection. This evaluation helps us confirm whether LANAP periodontal treatment is the best solution for your needs.
Then, we use a specialized dental laser to remove infected tissue and bacteria around the teeth. The laser targets diseased areas while preserving healthy gum tissue. This precise approach makes laser periodontal therapy far less invasive than traditional gum surgery.
After removing infected tissue, we thoroughly clean the tooth roots and surrounding pockets. This step eliminates bacterial buildup that contributes to periodontal disease. The process creates a healthier environment for your gums to heal.
The laser stimulates the body’s natural healing response. Gum tissue begins to reattach to the teeth as inflammation decreases. Over time, this healing process helps stabilize teeth and restore healthier gum support.
Untreated periodontal disease damages the structures that support your teeth. As infection spreads, it can weaken the bone and eventually cause teeth to loosen or fall out. Research also links chronic gum inflammation to broader health concerns, including cardiovascular disease and complications with diabetes.
