Although dental implants are a highly successful tooth replacement solution, in rare situations, dental implants can develop complications like peri-implantitis. This severe infection damages the tissues and bone supporting the implant.
Left untreated, peri-implantitis can lead to failing dental implants, pain, and even implant loss. At Phoenix Comprehensive Dentistry in Phoenix, AZ, we offer a minimally invasive solution called Laser Assisted Peri-Implantitis Procedure (LAPIPⓇ) to treat failing dental implants and restore your oral health!
LAPIP is a specialized laser treatment designed to treat peri-implantitis around failing dental implants. Using the same advanced laser technology as LANAPⓇ, LAPIP removes infected tissue and bacteria while preserving healthy tissue and encouraging regeneration.
There’s no cutting or stitching, which helps stabilize the implant. This treatment offers hope for saving dental implants that might otherwise need to be removed.
The LAPIP procedure begins with a detailed examination to assess the health of your implants and the surrounding tissue. Next, a specialized laser gently removes bacteria and infected tissue caused by peri-implantitis without harming healthy gum or bone.
The laser energy also helps stimulate bone regrowth and natural healing around the implant site. Most patients experience minimal discomfort and a faster recovery than traditional surgical options.
