He is now certified on the only FDA cleared laser dental procedure for gum disease treatment, the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure. Only one percent of practicing dental professionals are trained and certified to utilize the procedure. LANAP is made possible with the PerioLase MVP-7 laser and its special selective qualities. The laser uses wavelengths that kill the bacteria and react with the diseased gum tissue to remove it. These wavelengths are not absorbed by water, bone or healthy gum tissue, so they are left intact.
