Consultants in Dental Aesthetics Announce the Laser Alternative to Gum Surgery - LANAP Protocol

Consultants in Dental Aesthetics encourage periodontal patients to use LANAP, the laser alternative to gum surgery. This is a no cut, no sew, no fear procedure. Dr. Landry has received a fellowship - higher level training - in the use of these lasers, including the Millennium Laser in use at his office.

Oral health has a direct impact on a person's overall health. Recent reports have linked gum disease with heart disease, stroke, diabetes and low-birth weight babies. The fact is that bacteria that can cause gum inflammation can travel throughout the body, including to cells in the coronary arteries. LANAP, the only FDA approved laser-based treatment for gum disease, is less painful than traditional surgery and results in the patients' experiencing faster healing. There is a reduced risk of infection and less post-treatment discomfort. Unlike traditional surgery, there is little to no gum recession.

"We all think that cholesterol is important to heart disease.  The health of your gums is a more important predictor of whether you will have a heart attack or not," says Mehmet C. Oz (Dr. Oz) Director of the Cardiovascular Institute at Columbia University, Medical Center.

Claudette K, a recent patient, said of Consultants in Dental Aesthetics, "Dr. Landry is an excellent dentist and is up on all the new technology and procedures in giving you a beautiful and healthy smile."
