Are There Any Gum Reconstruction Options to Restore Smile Aesthetics?

Thursday, August 27th, 2015
Q.

Hello. I have advanced periodontitis with some bone loss and gum recession. I’ve been reading a lot about LANAP. I’m petrified of scaling and planing and of losing more gum line. My first question is how do I find a certified dentist who performs LANAP? I live in Oxfordshire but can travel, I cannot risk being “ripped off” in any way and want to do my research well. Secondly are there options for bone / gum reconstruction to restore the aesthetics of my smile that I now hide away? Thank you for any advice. Kindest regards.

Can you tell me where I can receive the new Lanap treatment?

Q.

Where is London can I get Lanap treatment – have severe peridontal disease – 50% bone erosion in places. Just had xrays completed. Front tooth has limited bone left and dentist talking about stabalisation asap. Always had a few pockets that were cleaned on a regular basis – but I did lapse for the last 18 months – but no real symptoms over that period – continued brushing and flossing. Literally 5 days ago I became very aware that my front tooth was very sensitive and shaky hence visit to dentist. In some places she noticed the pocket was a measurement of 9 – seems have heriditary issues as opposed to very bad oral health. I obviously want to address this and she has advised a course of deep cleaning across all quadrants etc – but this lanap treatment seems like a route that may be very beneficial to me – however I cannot find a dentist in London that actually provides it – Can you help?
