Author and board certified periodontist located in Columbus, Ohio, Dr. Jason Stoner, DDS, MS is internationally recognized as a leader in LANAP Laser Gum Surgery. Cleared by the FDA, LANAP (Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure) is a non-surgical laser technology utilized to treat gum disease and regenerate bones, ligaments and gum tissue. LANAP is less invasive, often painless, and results in virtually no discomfort. For most patients, recovery is quick, and does not have any of the painful side effects that come with traditional "cut & stitch" gum surgery. When performed in mild to moderate periodontal disease conditions, LANAP is much more comfortable both during and after the laser gum therapy. Additionally, LANAP relies on your own body's cells to regenerate your tissues rather than the addition of materials from another human, animal or by synthetic materials. Periodontal disease is the #1 reason for tooth loss and, once one tooth falls out or is removed, the risk of losing additional teeth greatly increases. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Academy of Periodontology, nearly 50% of all American adults aged 30 and over have periodontal disease. According to the author, periodontal disease is something that should always be treated by a board certified periodontist. Only 30% of periodontists in the United States achieve this board certification status. Other doctors may be able to learn how to perform the LANAP laser surgery but they typically will not to be able to comprehensively manage the treatment of the disease and its associated issues. Patients need a specialist who has spent the vast majority of their studies and surgical residency training in the specific area of the Periodontium, the tissues that support the teeth including the gums, periodontal ligament and bone. Imagine going to your family doctor and being advised to obtain a hip replacement. You expect to be referred to a specialist, namely an orthopedic surgeon for the surgery but your family doctor tells you that he just learned how to operate the latest in laser scalpel technology and he is confident he can handle your procedure. Hopefully, you would not dream of going along with that scenario. Likewise, patients with gum disease should seek out the advice of a board certified periodontist. In this book, Dr. Stoner also reveals the two critical questions you must ask your doctor before moving forward with LANAP laser gum surgery.
