How Much Does LANAP Laser Gum Surgery Cost?
How much does LANAP laser gum surgery cost?
LANAP (laser-assisted new attachment procedure) is a less invasive and revolutionary alternative to traditional gum disease surgery. The true beauty of laser gum surgery is that it does not involve cutting or sewing the gum tissue. The laser can treat gum disease effectively, meaning that our periodontists do not have to use a scalpel or sutures as they ordinarily would.
By using an advanced laser instead of a scalpel and sutures, our periodontists can treat gum disease in a manner that creates much less pain for patients. As a result, laser gum disease surgery is in high demand. Because laser gum surgery is a new and advanced procedure, many patients wonder what it will cost. Learn more below:
How much does LANAP laser gum surgery cost?
LANAP laser gum surgery cost can vary based on several factors. For example, the cost may change if the patient has severe gum disease or requires additional procedures. Typically, though, LANAP laser gum surgery costs can range from $1,250 - $3,000 per quadrant ($5,000 - $12,000 for full-mouth LANAP). This price is similar to traditional gum disease surgery and is covered by most dental insurance providers. There is a good chance that your out-of-pocket costs will be minimal.
