LANAP Laser Dentistry - Oyster Bay, NY
Minimally invasive laser gum disease treatment, for patients across Oyster Bay and the North Shore.
A Gentler Way to Treat Gum Disease in Oyster Bay
For patients with moderate to advanced gum disease, LANAP laser treatment offers an effective alternative to traditional gum surgery — with less cutting, less discomfort, and faster recovery. At Corbin Dental in Oyster Bay, NY, we use this advanced laser approach to treat periodontal disease while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
LANAP (the Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) targets diseased tissue and bacteria below the gumline with a precise dental laser, leaving healthy gum intact. For many North Shore patients, it means real results without scalpels or sutures. See our gum disease page for more about periodontal care.

What to Expect at Our Oyster Bay Office
After confirming LANAP is right for your stage of gum disease, we use the laser to remove diseased tissue and bacteria below the gumline, then allow the area to heal and reattach. Most patients are comfortable throughout and recover faster than with conventional gum surgery.
- Minimal discomfort during and after treatment
- Little to no gum recession compared with traditional surgery
- Reduced bleeding and swelling
- Can encourage regeneration of supporting tissue
- Quicker healing and recovery
Maintaining Healthy Gums After LANAP
Laser treatment is most successful when paired with good ongoing care. Daily hygiene and regular periodontal maintenance at our Oyster Bay office keep gum disease from returning.
- Stay Calm: Panic can make the situation worse. Take a deep breath and focus on the immediate steps.
- Rinse Your Mouth: Use warm water to gently rinse your mouth, especially if there’s bleeding or debris.
- Control Bleeding: Apply gentle, firm pressure with a clean gauze or cloth to the affected area.
- Manage Pain: Over-the-counter pain relievers can help. Avoid placing aspirin directly on the gums, as it can cause burns.
- Apply a Cold Compress: A cold compress applied to the outside of your cheek can help reduce swelling and discomfort.
