LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) at Harriman Dental is an advanced, FDA-cleared treatment for gum disease that uses laser technology to remove diseased tissue without needing scalpels or sutures. Unlike traditional gum surgery, LANAP® is minimally invasive, resulting in less discomfort and faster healing. This procedure is performed by a trained dentist or periodontist and is designed to target only infected tissue while preserving healthy gum and bone structure. How Does LANAP® Work? During LANAP®, a specialized PerioLase® laser gently accesses the infected pockets around teeth. The laser selectively removes bacteria and diseased tissue without harming healthy areas. Next, the dentist uses ultrasonic instruments to clean the root surfaces of the teeth, removing plaque and tartar. Finally, the laser helps seal the pocket and promotes regeneration of the bone and tissue, encouraging natural healing and reattachment of the gums. Benefits of LANAP® for Treating Gum Disease Minimally Invasive: No cutting or stitches, leading to less pain and swelling. Faster Healing: Encourages tissue regeneration and quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery. Bone Regrowth: Stimulates natural bone regeneration around teeth, helping stabilize them. Reduced Sensitivity: Patients typically experience minimal post-treatment discomfort. Preserves Teeth: Helps save natural teeth that might otherwise be lost to advanced gum disease. Convenient: Often completed in fewer visits, with less downtime. Who is a Good Candidate? LANAP® is ideal for patients with moderate to severe gum disease who want a less invasive treatment option. It’s also an excellent choice for those who are anxious about traditional surgery or... --- - Published: 2024-01-12 - Modified: 2025-09-22 - URL: https://www.harrimandental.com/pros-and-cons-of-dental-implants/ Dental implants are used to support the replacement of a single tooth or multiple teeth depending on the individual’s requirements and condition. Reading about the pros and cons of the process may help you decide if dental implants are right for you. Are Dental Implants for You? One of the hottest topics in dentistry today is the use of dental implants. Implants have certainly revolutionized the field of tooth replacement. If you are considering dental implants for missing teeth, you need to know the facts. There are pros and cons of dental implants that are carefully weighed by your dentist before surgery can be scheduled. Research continually shows that dental implants are the best long-term solution to replace missing teeth. However, like any type of surgery, there are advantages and disadvantages. Cons of Dental Implants No procedure is right for everyone, including dental implants. While there are some risks associated with dental implants, they are relatively mild. The disadvantages include: 1. You have to meet a set of requirements In order to have dental implant surgery, you first have to meet certain criteria. As the procedure involves anchoring the implant to your jaw bone, if you’ve experienced significant bone loss as a result of losing teeth, there may not be enough for the dental implant to be successful. You also have to be in good health so your jawbone can fully recover. 2. The cost of the procedure While dental implants are the best long-term solution for tooth loss, they’re not always the most cost-effective. However, dental implants are well worth the price for the comfort, confidence, and natural feel they give you. 3. The procedure can be lengthy Dental implants are not a quick fix and can take several months to... --- - Published: 2023-11-27 - Modified: 2026-01-18 - URL: https://www.harrimandental.com/how-to-improve-your-oral-microbiome/ To prevent the build-up of bad bacteria and ensure a healthy microbiome, doctors recommend controlling the amount of sugary/processed foods you consume and insist on a daily oral care regimen that includes brushing twice a day, flossing, and drinking plenty of water. Understanding Oral Microbiome Communities The idea of billions of microbes and bacteria living in your mouth may seem like a scary thought. In reality, these microscopic entities work hard to create a symbiotic environment for both them and you. Around 300 different species of microbes live in your mouth, all working in harmony to create communities called biofilms. Depending on your eating habits and oral care, this may or may not be a good thing. Biofilms left to develop with little oral care and poor eating habits can lead to an excess of bad bacteria, throwing off the balance of your entire oral microbiome. Various health conditions can be traced back to an upset microbiome, from infected gums to Irritable Bowel Syndrome, you never know what could be affected by a dirty mouth. In this blog, we discuss how to improve your oral microbiome. How Diet Affects Your Oral Microbiome Just like us, microbes need to eat, making the mouth the perfect home. This also means that whatever you eat, your microbes eat too. According to an article by the Genomic Medicine Group, when we eat foods with high amounts of added sugar and refined flour, certain microbes in the mouth convert those sugars to acid. The newly created acid then erodes tooth enamel and overwhelms the mouth with bad bacteria. Via your saliva, this bad bacteria can easily travel to your gut, enter your bloodstream, and affect other areas of the body. Maintaining a Healthy Oral Microbiome Doctors recommend... --- - Published: 2023-04-19 - Modified: 2025-06-18 - URL: https://www.harrimandental.com/introduction-to-different-types-of-dentures/ Modern dentures are more comfortable, convenient, and realistic than ever before. If you believe dentures might be a right fit for you, contact Harriman Family Dental. Dentures: What Is Your Best Option? Many aspects need to be considered when choosing which type of dentures you want and require. With three different types of dentures available to you, there are advantages and disadvantages for all. So, let’s go over all your options and figure out which one will suit you best. Traditional Dentures The traditional denture has been used for many centuries. Traditional dentures are no longer considered to be up to the standards of care since dentures have become so mainstream in dentistry. Traditional denture users will have a significant loss of bone and gum support, which will result in facial drooping, sagging skin, and the look of early aging. The following are a few benefits and drawbacks: Advantages: The least expensive of the three types Can look nice Better than having nothing Disadvantages: Hard to eat with & they move around a lot Can feel bulky in your mouth Large loss of taste and temperature sensations due to the roof of the mouth being covered Needs frequent realignment and repairs Implant Snap-On Dentures The most popular choice for people seeking to replace their missing teeth is the implant snap-on . Compared to a traditional denture, this option snaps into place and is far more stable, less bulky, and doesn’t cover the roof of your mouth. For simple cleaning, the denture can be taken out. Additionally, the use of implants stops future bone loss, early aging, and facial drooping. The following are the benefits and drawbacks... --- - Published: 2023-03-21 - Modified: 2025-06-18 - URL: https://www.harrimandental.com/what-issues-can-invisalign-treatment-fix/ Invisalign® revolutionized the way people look at orthodontic treatment. Learn how the clear aligner system from Invisalign® made it possible for people to discreetly improve their smiles. Enhance Your Smile with Invisalign® Treatment: A Comprehensive Guide Invisalign® has transformed the landscape of orthodontic treatment, providing a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces. The clear aligner system enables individuals to improve their smiles without the discomfort often associated with braces. While Invisalign® treatment offers an aesthetically pleasing solution, it's crucial to consider various factors when choosing orthodontic treatment. Our dentists at Harriman Family Dental recommend evaluating your individual situation before making a decision. In this guide, we'll explore the effectiveness of Invisalign® in addressing specific orthodontic issues. Invisalign® Treatment for Common Concerns 1. Crooked Teeth Invisalign® excels in treating crooked teeth, offering a practical solution to align teeth and enhance your smile discreetly. 2. Overbite & Underbite Addressing both overbites and underbites, Invisalign® can reposition either the top or bottom teeth to achieve proper alignment with the mouth closed. 3. Crossbite Invisalign® effectively corrects crossbites, ensuring that teeth align correctly when the mouth is closed, preventing misalignments in the back or front teeth. 4. Gaps in Teeth & Crowded Teeth Whether you have gaps between your teeth or experience crowding, Invisalign® is a versatile solution. It resolves gaps and overcrowding, promoting optimal oral health. Considerations and Limitations While Invisalign® is an excellent option for various orthodontic issues, it's essential to acknowledge its limitations. In some cases, traditional braces may be more suitable, especially for severe orthodontic problems, intrusion, and extrusion. It's worth noting that Invisalign® has evolved over the years, now capable of addressing more complex situations... --- --- ## Services --- ## Doctors ---
