A smile I'm proud to share.
"Before the surgery, I always had a closed-mouth smile, now I'm happy to let everyone see it. Dr. Nordland is my hero."
For decades, patients suffering from gum disease were given only one option—traditional surgery involving scalpels, sutures, and long recoveries.
But innovation has changed everything.
LANAP is the most advanced laser periodontal treatment available, delivering real gum and bone regeneration without invasive surgery.
This isn't just a treatment; it's a revolution in gum care.
The power of precision laser technology allows us to eliminate bacteria, restore lost bone, and prevent gum recession—all with a quick recovery and minimal discomfort.
If you've been told you need gum surgery—or worse, that your gum disease is untreatable—discover a breakthrough designed for those who refuse to settle.
Gum disease is deceptive.
You might not feel pain, but that doesn't mean it isn't causing harm.
Beneath the surface, bacteria are actively destroying the bone that holds your teeth in place, eroding the foundation of your smile.
Slowly, quietly, your gums are pulling away, and your jawbone is shrinking—until one day, you notice something is different.
Maybe it starts with a little more space between your teeth.
Maybe you feel them shift when you bite into something firm.
Maybe your gums bleed when you brush, but you assume that's normal.
It's not.
These are early warning signs of a deeper problem—one that won't stop on its own.
And it's not just about your teeth.
Chronic inflammation from untreated gum disease has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, and even cognitive decline.
This is not just an oral health issue—it's a systemic one.
What's happening in your mouth is impacting your entire body.
The problem is most treatments only address the symptoms—not the root cause.
Traditional gum surgery cuts away infected tissue, but it doesn't stop the disease from progressing.
It doesn't regenerate lost bone.
It doesn't preserve the natural structure of your gums. It doesn't ensure that your body heals in a way that protects you from future damage.
LANAP is different. It goes beyond stopping gum disease—it reverses it.
By using highly targeted laser technology, LANAP eliminates bacteria without cutting or sutures, stimulates bone and tissue regeneration, and allows your gums to heal in a way that's natural, healthy, and long-lasting.
This is your wake-up call.
The damage may already be happening, but the solution is here—and the time to act is now.
For decades, gum disease treatment followed the same outdated playbook: cut away infected tissue, stitch the gums, and hope for the best.
Patients endured painful recoveries, excessive gum recession, and unpredictable outcomes, only to discover that their disease continued to progress.
Maybe you've already been through this cycle.
Maybe you've had deep cleanings, gum surgery, or even grafts—only to watch your gums continue to recede.
The problem isn't you. The problem is the treatment.
This isn't just a different approach—it's a scientific breakthrough.
While traditional treatments focus on damage control, LANAP focuses on regeneration.
It's not about stopping disease—it's about reversing it.
LANAP isn't just another dental procedure—it's a biological breakthrough in periodontal care.
Unlike traditional treatments that cut away infected tissue, LANAP works with your body to stimulate healing, preserve healthy gums, and rebuild lost bone.
Using AI-guided digital imaging and ultra-precise laser technology, we can eliminate harmful bacteria and diseased tissue while leaving the healthy structures untouched—allowing your body to do what it was designed to do: heal itself.
This isn't guesswork. This is science-driven precision. Here's how it works:
Before we begin, we use high-resolution 3D imaging to analyze your bone structure, gum attachment, and bacterial infection levels.
This ensures ultra-precise laser targeting and a customized treatment plan tailored to your mouth's specific needs.
The LANAP laser selectively removes bacteria and diseased tissue while leaving healthy gum and bone untouched.
Unlike scalpels, which remove large sections of gum, this laser precision protects your natural smile and prevents gum recession.
LANAP does more than eliminate disease—it triggers the body's natural regenerative response.
By stimulating stem cell activation, we encourage the growth of new bone and connective tissue, reversing damage that was once considered permanent.
To enhance healing, we integrate biomaterials like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)—a treatment that harnesses your own body's growth factors to accelerate tissue repair and bone regeneration.
This ensures faster healing, less discomfort, and a long-lasting result.
This is not just about stopping gum disease—it's about rebuilding what's been lost and preserving your natural smile for life. LANAP ensures that:
For many of our patients, their journey started with fear, hesitation, and years of frustration.
They were told they had severe gum disease, that they might lose their teeth, or that painful surgery was their only option.
Then they found LANAP.
LANAP doesn't just treat gum disease—it restores what was lost.
Patients who were once afraid to smile now do so with complete confidence.
Those who thought they'd need extractions and dentures now have strong, healthy gums supporting their natural teeth.
These are their stories.
"I was told by multiple periodontists that my only option was gum surgery that would leave my teeth looking longer and my gums permanently receded. That was never going to work for me. My profession requires me to be in front of people daily—I needed a solution that was effective, discreet, and fast. LANAP gave me exactly that. The best part? No one even knew I had the procedure. I left with my gums intact and my confidence restored."
"As a former professional athlete, my body is my investment. My oral health was declining, and it was affecting my performance and overall well-being. I couldn't afford to deal with painful surgery or extended recovery times. LANAP gave me a permanent solution that didn't interfere with my training. It was the smartest health decision I've ever made."
"I waited too long. My gums were receding, my teeth felt loose, and I had already been told that I wasn't a candidate for implants because of bone loss. I thought I was out of options. But LANAP did something I didn't think was possible—it helped me grow back bone that I had lost and stabilized my gums without painful surgery. I only wish I had found it sooner."
Proof that LANAP works, that it transforms lives, and that it can do the same for you.
If you've been told it's too late, if you're tired of failed treatments, or if you refuse to settle for invasive surgery with no guarantee of regeneration, it's time to see what's possible with LANAP.
We understand—choosing the right treatment for your gum health is a major decision.
Many of our patients had similar questions and concerns before moving forward with LANAP. Here's what you need to know:
Absolutely not. Unlike traditional gum surgery, which involves cutting and sutures, LANAP is minimally invasive and virtually painless.
The laser seals blood vessels and nerve endings as it works, meaning less discomfort, faster healing, and no need for stitches.
Many of our patients return to normal activities within 24 hours—without the pain and swelling that comes with traditional surgery.
LANAP patients experience remarkably fast recovery times.
Traditional gum surgery often requires weeks of downtime due to inflammation and open wounds.
With LANAP, the laser stimulates healing immediately, meaning most patients resume normal routines within a day or two.
Many of our patients come to us after failed deep cleanings, gum grafts, or traditional surgeries.
LANAP is different because it doesn't just remove disease—it stimulates your body to regenerate gum and bone naturally.
It is the only FDA-cleared laser treatment proven to help rebuild lost bone, setting it apart from every other approach.
No. Traditional surgery cuts away large portions of gum tissue, leading to longer-looking teeth and increased sensitivity.
LANAP is gentle and precise, removing only diseased tissue while preserving your natural gum line.
Yes—but for good reason.
LANAP is a long-term investment in your health, while traditional surgery often leads to repeated treatments, additional surgeries, and future complications.
When you consider avoiding tooth loss, preventing further bone deterioration, and maintaining a youthful smile, LANAP saves time, money, and unnecessary suffering in the long run.
If you have moderate to severe gum disease, have been told you need gum surgery or are experiencing symptoms like gum recession, bleeding, or loose teeth, LANAP could be the perfect solution.
The only way to know for sure is to schedule a private consultation where we'll assess your gum health and create a personalized treatment plan just for you.
