LANAP Protocol is Helping to Reduce Opioid Addiction

"LANAP surgery has tremendous benefits for patients," comments Robert H. Gregg II, DDS, president of Millennium Dental Technologies and the inventor of the LANAP® protocol. "The PerioLase MVP-7 was specifically designed with the ideal parameters to effectively treat gum disease following the strict LANAP protocol. The laser energy destroys bacteria and endotoxins; stimulating the body's natural healing response during the process.  By removing scalpels and sutures, we remove the patient's fear and increase treatment acceptance."

Studies show 99% of oral surgeons prescribe opioids for wisdom teeth extraction, yet 54% of opioids prescribed are not used.  Estimates for opioid prescription are similar for periodontal flap surgery using scalpels and sutures.  The LANAP protocol replaces traditional osseous surgery and is the only laser periodontal surgery with scientific evidence supporting the FDA clearance of True Periodontal Regeneration. 

"Not only can LANAP treatment regenerate the bone and tissues lost to periodontal disease with virtually no pain, the LAPIP treatment is saving dental implants," continues Dr Gregg. "We are combating two of dentistry's biggest challenges – saving ailing and failing implants while achieving the gold standard in Periodontics, that of True Periodontal Regeneration."

The LANAP protocol is the only laser periodontal protocol validated with two human histological studies and supported with a 6 month money-back clinical results guarantee. LANAP regenerative specialists are required to complete intensive training through the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry, including treating three live patients over the course of 12 months.
