LAPIP Peri-Implantitis Treatment

Save your dental implant investment with FDA-cleared laser treatment — 95% of treated implants reintegrate with new bone growth.

Save Your Implant

95% of Failing Implants Reintegrate

Peri-implantitis — infection and bone loss around a dental implant — threatens thousands of implant patients. Left untreated, it leads to implant failure and the loss of your investment. Traditional treatment options often involve invasive surgery or even implant removal.

LAPIP (Laser Assisted Peri-Implantitis Procedure) offers a better way. Using the FDA-cleared PerioLase MVP-7 laser, LAPIP treats the infection while preserving tissue integrity — and 95% of failing implants treated with LAPIP have reintegrated with bone growth of 3-8 threads.

LAPIP peri-implantitis laser treatment

The LAPIP Protocol

Eight-Step Treatment Process

A. Laser Vaporization

The PerioLase MVP-7 laser vaporizes diseased tissue and bacteria from around the implant without damaging the implant surface or healthy tissue.

B. Ultrasonic Scaling

Specialized ultrasonic instruments remove calcified deposits (tartar) from the implant surface and surrounding area.

C. Bone Modification

Any irregular bone around the implant is carefully reshaped to promote proper healing and tissue reattachment.

D. Fibrin Clot Formation

The laser stimulates the formation of a stable fibrin clot that acts as a biological scaffold for new bone growth around the implant.

E-H. Healing & Regeneration

The remaining steps guide tissue compression, occlusal adjustment, and post-operative care to support bone regeneration and implant reintegration over the following months.

Why LAPIP

Less Invasive, Better Outcomes

Traditional peri-implantitis treatment often involves cutting open the gum tissue, manually debriding the implant surface, and sometimes removing the implant entirely. LAPIP preserves tissue integrity and treats the infection at its source — without scalpels or sutures.

  • 95% reintegration rate — failing implants reintegrate with 3-8 threads of new bone growth
  • Preserves tissue — no cutting, no grafting, no sutures
  • FDA-cleared — PerioLase MVP-7 is the only laser cleared for this protocol
  • Faster recovery — most patients return to normal activities within 24 hours
  • Saves your investment — protect the thousands you've already spent on your implant

Signs of Peri-Implantitis

If you have dental implants and notice any of these symptoms, contact us for an evaluation:

  • Red, swollen, or bleeding gums around an implant
  • Pain or tenderness at the implant site
  • Pus or discharge around the implant
  • Loose or shifting implant
  • Receding gums exposing the implant post
  • Bad taste or persistent bad breath

Early detection gives LAPIP the best chance of saving your implant. Don't wait until the infection progresses to the point of implant loss.
