| Abstract | ||
| The LANAP process is a protocol that compacts with inflammation, the infectious procedure, occlusion, tooth mobility, and an osseous component. The LANAP protocol is rather simplistic. Utilized by a certified and trained periodontist or dentist, it is a surgical laser procedure intended for the treatment of periodontitis through regeneration rather than resection. The definitive objective is to set up the periodontal condition to advance self-regeneration of the lost attachment and osseous structure that result from periodontal ailment. Regeneration is a fairly complex event and, as observed with guided tissue regeneration or scaling and root planning alone, can be very unpredictable. LANAP is predictable. This article introduces a general depiction of the LANAP protocol (laser-assisted new attachment procedure) and the advantages of its utilization to patients. | ||
