Modern dentistry has evolved beyond traditional scalpels and sutures. Dr. Dan Berant, uses advanced laser dentistry to provide precise, minimally invasive treatment for gum disease and peri-implant infections. By incorporating leading technologies such as the Millennium laser and Fotona laser, Dr. Dan Berant delivers highly targeted care designed to promote healing, reduce discomfort, and preserve your natural smile.
Laser dentistry uses highly focused light energy to treat a variety of dental and periodontal conditions. In periodontal therapy, dental lasers selectively target diseased or infected tissue while leaving healthy structures largely unaffected. This precision minimizes trauma to the gums and surrounding bone, which can result in faster healing and reduced post-treatment discomfort.
We utilize both Millennium lasers for LANAP® and LAPIP® procedures, as well as Fotona laser technology for advanced soft-tissue and periodontal applications. These FDA-cleared systems are scientifically backed and designed to improve clinical outcomes while enhancing patient comfort.
LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is a minimally invasive laser treatment in New York, NY, for moderate to severe periodontal disease. Instead of cutting away gum tissue, the Millennium laser selectively removes infected tissue and bacteria from deep periodontal pockets. Because the laser energy also stimulates regeneration, LANAP helps encourage the reattachment of gum tissue and may promote bone regeneration around teeth. Patients often experience:
Peri-implantitis is a serious infection that affects the tissue and bone surrounding dental implants. If left untreated, it can lead to implant failure. LAPIP (Laser-Assisted Peri-Implantitis Procedure) uses the Millennium laser to target infected tissue around implants while preserving healthy structures.
This minimally invasive approach allows Dr. Dan to disinfect the affected area and promote healing without removing the implant in many cases. For patients who have invested in dental implants, LAPIP provides a powerful solution to protect and extend the life of their restoration.
Dr. Dan uses Fotona laser technology for a range of soft tissue and regenerative treatments. Fotona lasers enable exceptional control and precision in managing gum tissue, reducing bacteria, and promoting tissue healing. This technology enhances treatment outcomes by:
By integrating Fotona laser systems into periodontal care, we can offer highly customized treatment plans that prioritize both health and aesthetics.
Laser dentistry offers numerous advantages over traditional surgical methods. Because lasers are highly precise, they minimize trauma to surrounding tissue and reduce the need for sutures. Many patients report less discomfort, less bleeding, and shorter recovery times compared to conventional gum surgery. Additional benefits include:
