Parkersburg, WV -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/11/2014 -- Dr. Richard Newhart is now accepting patients for Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP). One of the most trusted gum treatment dentists in Parkersburg, Dr. Newhart keeps up to date with the latest and most effective dental surgery practices, and offers them to his patients as soon as he learns them.
LANAP has been shown to have numerous benefits over traditional surgical procedures. This revolutionary technique greatly reduces the discomfort the patient feels both during and after the procedure. Because the procedure requires no cutting or suturing, it is much easier to heal from LANAP.
LANAP is also more efficient than its predecessors because it takes less time to complete and requires fewer follow-up visits. While those with periodontal disease should continue their regular check-ups and clearings to prevent the return of an infection, their recovery from surgery will take much less time than the traditional four 1-hour follow-up sessions.
Many patients will recover in less than 24 hours and won’t even have to miss a day of work. And because there is no cutting involved, the treatment is safe for patients who have diabetes, HIV, and hemophilia. Results have been shown to remain stable even after 5 years in 95% of patients.
Rather than relying on incisions and resection, LANAP uses regeneration techniques to restore tissue damaged by periodontal disease. By selectively removing diseased or infected pocket epithelium from underlying connective tissue, dentists in Parkersburg who use LANAP treatment effectively eliminate the problem tissue and have a minimal impact on the area.
