Laser Gum Surgery

Laser gum therapy, known as LANAP, is a new procedure that uses a laser to treat infected tissue and then allows the mouth and gums to heal. Laser therapy is a great advancement because you don't need to cut away gum tissue as with traditional gum surgery. This means you will experience much less discomfort and swelling, with shorter recovery times. Calm Dental doctors are among very few dentists (less than 1%) who are trained and licensed to perform LANAP.

LANAP successfully treats moderate to severe gum disease and can specifically help you if you would like to keep your own natural teeth and will commit to a periodontal maintenance program. Call our office today for an exam and consultation to see if you are a candidate for LANAP.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are fast becoming the preferred way to replace a natural tooth. With a dental implant, there are two parts: a titanium post and a crown (or cap). The titanium post fuses to your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. With the healing process, the post becomes part of your jaw, creating an anchor for the crown. This gives your implant the strength of a healthy, natural tooth.

Dr. Ramtin Khaef is a specialist in placing dental implants and will design your crown based upon your preferences and aesthetic desires. Once your new implant is fully healed and the crown placed, it will function and feel exactly like the original tooth. Although implants are meant to last a lifetime, they need care just like a natural tooth.
