Failing Dental Implant Treatment - Morristown, NJ & Flushing, NY
A Minimally Invasive Alternative
to Implant Replacement
Save Failing Dental Implants
with LAPIP™ Laser Therapy
Dental implant surgery provides transformative results. However, factors such as poor oral hygiene, smoking, and systemic health conditions can increase the risk of peri-implantitis—a progressive inflammatory condition similar to gum disease that targets the soft and hard tissue around implants.
Prompt treatment at Morristown Oral Surgery & Implantology Associates is essential for preventing gum tissue and bone loss around implants—and saving them from failure. As the only FDA-cleared laser treatment for failing dental implants, LAPIP (Laser Assisted Peri-Implantitis Protocol) offers an effective, minimally invasive alternative to revision surgery in Morristown, NJ, and Flushing, NY.
Issues that Increase the Risk
of Implant Failures
- Poor oral hygiene
- Smoking or tobacco use
- Uncontrolled diabetes or other systemic diseases
- Untreated periodontal disease
- Insufficient bone density or volume
- Bruxism (teeth grinding or clenching)
- Inadequate healing or osseointegration (fusion)
- Excessive biting or chewing forces
- Injury to the gums or other areas around implants
Rebuild Your Strong and Stable
Smile Foundation with LAPIP
Before the development of laser therapy, failing dental implants caused by peri-implantitis had to be removed, often along with diseased gum tissue, followed by bone grafting and/or gingival grafts. Once the site healed, a new dental implant was placed, if clinically feasible.
Unlike traditional methods that can be invasive and costly, LAPIP uses laser technology to gently treat peri-implantitis in Morristown, NJ, and Flushing, NY. Studies show that 95% of failing dental implants treated with the LAPIP protocol reintegrate in the pockets and stabilize with three to eight threads of bone growth.
