LANAP Melbourne, in conjunction with Kew Periodontics and Dental Implants, is proudly the first and only practice in Melbourne and Victoria to utilise the genuine LANAP® protocol for laser gum surgery.

Dr Allison Dean has completed comprehensive training of the LANAP® protocol across multiple visits to Los Angeles (USA).  This now avails the most technologically advanced laser gum treatment to her patients.

Laser Gum Surgery and the PerioLase LANAP® protocol

The LANAP® protocol is a laser-based treatment for gum disease, which requires no cutting or suturing by your Periodontist.  Patients typically experience less pain and discomfort during and after the procedure, compared to traditional periodontal surgery.

The LANAP® protocol can only be performed with the PerioLase® MVP-7; a laser that attacks the bacteria that contribute to gum disease, while leaving healthy tissue intact.  Post-surgical gum recession and tooth sensitivity, which can be experienced following traditional gum surgery, are also greatly reduced.
