LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure)
LANAP (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure)
Advanced Laser Gum Therapy (LANAP) is a revolutionary, minimally invasive way to restore gum health—treating gum disease with precision, comfort, and care—without the need for scalpels or sutures.
Instead of traditional surgery, we use a specialized dental laser to target infected tissue while preserving the healthy areas around it. The treatment not only removes bacteria and reduces inflammation, it also stimulates natural gum and bone regeneration, helping your smile heal from the inside out.
Experience healing without the fear. Book your laser gum therapy consultation today.

Your Oral Care Guide
What type of toothbrush and toothpaste should I use?
What type of toothbrush and toothpaste should I use?
Buy toothbrushes with medium to soft bristles. Firm ones can damage teeth and gums. Manual brushes with mixed bristle heights or angled bristles clean better than those with all flat, even bristles. Powered toothbrushes may be easier if you have trouble using your hands.
We recommend using our Deep Cleaning Toothbrush or Electric Toothbrush for your brushing needs. (see products)
Most toothpastes will clear away bacteria growth and acids from food and drinks. Toothpastes with the American Dental Association (ADA) Seal of Acceptance always have fluoride, which strengthens and protects teeth. But if you want a non-fluoride option and a toothpaste that's formulated for sensitive teeth, you might want to try our Anti-Sensitive Toothpaste (see products).
Do I really need to floss?
Do I really need to floss?
There's no getting around the need to get around your teeth daily with dental floss. It clears food and plaque from between teeth and under the gumline. If you don't, plaque hardens into tartar, which forms wedges and widens the space between teeth and gums, causing pockets. Over time, gums pull away and teeth loosen.
What foods and drinks should I limit to properly care for my teeth and gums?
What foods and drinks should I limit to properly care for my teeth and gums?
Limit sugary foods and drinks, as they can contribute to tooth decay. Avoid brushing immediately after consuming acidic foods and drinks, as they can soften tooth enamel.
What are the signs of potential oral health problems?
What are the signs of potential oral health problems?
Early signs of dental trouble may include bleeding gums, tooth sensitivity or pain, bad breath, dry mouth, jaw pain, swollen face/gums, or mouth sores.
Getting checked out right away prevents more serious problems and infections. See a dentist if you experience any of these symptoms.
Why do I need dental exams?
Why do I need dental exams?
Regular exams help spot trouble early to prevent bigger and more costly treatments later.
A dental hygienist will start by cleaning buildup from your teeth. Then the dentist will probe spots on the surfaces and near the gumline with special tools. If it's been a while between appointments, you may have some sore and sensitive areas.
You should get an exam every 6 months, or more often if your dentist recommends it. At Bucad, you can feel at ease and the dread of seeing the dentist turns to big relief. You can book your consultation with us now to prevent any complicated treatments later on.
