Board-certified periodontists with 50+ combined years of experience, treating gum disease without cutting, sutures, or lengthy recovery.
Searched for LANAP laser gum treatment in Dallas? You found the right practice. Drs. Mark Glover and Akshay Chhana are board-certified periodontists, recognized by D Magazine as among the best in Dallas, and LANAP is one of their most trusted procedures. New patients save 10% on their treatment.
Drs. Glover and Chhana are board-certified periodontists — specialists whose entire training is focused on the bone and soft tissue that holds your teeth in place. Here is what sets this practice apart for patients considering LANAP:
Periodontists complete years of surgical residency focused specifically on gum and bone — this is their full scope of practice, not a service offered alongside routine cleanings.
LANAP uses a 1064nm wavelength that seeks out periodontal bacteria, disinfects the pocket, and stimulates bone regeneration, all without a scalpel.
Dr. Glover has treated patients at the same Dallas address for over four decades; Dr. Chhana specializes in minimally invasive technique that reduces discomfort and shortens recovery.
From your first call through your final follow-up, you are treated as a patient worth knowing, not a chart number to move through the schedule.
Dr. Glover has practiced on Douglas Avenue in Dallas for over 40 years. That kind of tenure in the Highland Park and Preston Hollow community does not happen by chance — it comes from patients who heal well, refer their friends, and come back. When Dr. Chhana joined the practice, he brought a focused commitment to minimally invasive surgical technique that changed how gum disease is handled here.
If this needs to be done, it is worth having it done by someone who has done it thousands of times.
Gum disease and peri-implantitis share the same root cause: bacterial infection. LANAP targets both at the source.
Bleeding gums are often the first sign of gingivitis, and without treatment, gingivitis progresses into periodontitis — with deep pockets, bone loss, and eventual tooth loss. LANAP removes the infected tissue and the bacteria driving the disease, then stimulates your gum and bone to reattach and regenerate — without the cutting and suturing that traditional periodontal surgery requires. Most patients are surprised by how manageable the recovery is.
If a dental implant is showing signs of bone loss or infection around it, LANAP can treat the bacterial infection and promote healing without removing the implant. This is one of the primary reasons patients from across the Dallas area, and referring periodontists, bring complex implant cases to Drs. Glover and Chhana.
The procedure is predictable, the recovery is short, and for most patients, the results hold long-term.
Dr. Glover or Dr. Chhana reviews your X-rays and pocket measurements, and gives you a clear, honest assessment of whether LANAP is the right approach for your situation.
A thin fiber is placed gently between your gum and tooth. The 1064nm laser removes infected tissue and kills the bacteria causing the disease, without cutting the gum or folding it back.
The laser stimulates bone regeneration and seals the pocket to prevent reinfection. No sutures needed.
Most patients return to normal activity within a day or two, with follow-up visits to confirm the tissue is reattaching and responding.
Patients across Highland Park, Preston Hollow, and the broader Dallas area have trusted this practice with their periodontal care for decades. Read what they say about their experience.
The questions that keep people from calling are almost always the same ones we can clear up in a single conversation.
For most patients, yes. Traditional surgery requires cutting and suturing the gum tissue. LANAP uses a thin fiber with no scalpel involved, and most patients return to normal activity the next day.
The best way to find out is with an in-person consultation. LANAP works well for patients whose gum disease has progressed past gingivitis into periodontitis, with deep pockets, bone loss, or a failing implant. Dr. Glover or Dr. Chhana will review your records and give you a direct answer.
