At San Diego Smile Center, Dr. Cortes offers LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure), an advanced and minimally invasive alternative to traditional osseous surgery. This modern laser treatment provides new hope for patients who have been told their teeth or even dental implants cannot be saved.
Dr. Cortes often sees patients seeking a second opinion after being advised to undergo multiple extractions or implant removal. In many cases, LANAP has helped preserve teeth and implants that were previously considered hopeless, restoring both comfort and confidence.
Why Choose LANAP?
Why Choose LANAP?
Traditional gum surgery typically involves cutting the gums, placing sutures, and removing tissue, which can lead to longer healing times and gum recession.
LANAP in Mira Mesa works differently. Using precise laser technology, Dr. Cortes can target infected tissue while preserving healthy gum structure and stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This approach promotes true periodontal regeneration rather than simply reshaping tissue.
