Millennium Dental Technologies, Inc., the leader in laser-assisted regeneration (LAR) technology and innovative procedures, announced at the annual California Dental Association (CDA) convention in Anaheim the launch of the LANAP® AI Workflow in collaboration with Zyris, Inc., a leading manufacturer of dental isolation systems.
The new workflow integrates the company’s PerioLase MVP-7 laser with the Zyris Isolite Pro, helping dentists increase productivity by providing hands-free suction, retraction, and airway protection while performing the LANAP protocol and other procedures.
The LANAP protocol is a minimally invasive laser treatment only available using the PerioLase MVP-7 for patients with moderate to severe periodontal disease.
The patented treatment helps save natural teeth by significantly reducing harmful bacteria and regenerating bone, periodontal ligament, and cementum—without cutting or stitches.
“With the LANAP AI Workflow, LANAP-trained clinicians benefit from a set of virtual hands, helping them save time and treat an average of two to three more patients per day,” said Robert H. Gregg II, DDS, founder, president, and chairman of the board at Millennium Dental Technologies. “The new workflow is especially ideal for general dentists who may have limited staff or want to increase production and provide more efficient treatment to their patients.”
Dr. Gregg also pointed out that clinicians benefit from greater visibility of the oral field while maximizing safety by reducing airborne particles with continuous suction.
“By combining the power of the Isolite Pro system with the LANAP protocol, we’re enabling clinicians to deliver more efficient, precise, and patient-centered treatment—especially at a time when streamlined workflows and staff flexibility are more essential than ever,” said Paula Mann, VP of sales & marketing at Zyris, Inc. “We’re excited to collaborate with Millennium Dental Technologies in creating a solution that not only enhances treatment but also reinforces clinical education.”
Training is a mandatory requirement for LANAP clinicians and is conducted through the Institute for Advanced Laser Dentistry (IALD), a non-profit educational and research organization.
“Zyris shares our commitment to training by ensuring each clinician has the advanced proficiency to deliver successful and predictable outcomes for every patient,” said Dawn M. Gregg, DDS, training director, IALD. “That’s why our intensive five-day program includes a combination of didactic and hands-on, live-patient treatment using both the PerioLase MVP-7 laser and Isolite Pro system under the supervision of certified instructors.”
In addition to the LANAP protocol, other procedures available only with the PerioLase MVP-7 include:
- LAPIP™ protocol to save ailing and failing dental implants
- BLAST™ protocol for peri-implantitis and implant integration
- VAPS™ (Value-Added Procedures): dozens of soft- and hard-tissue laser techniques ranging from the treatment of TMJ, hemangiomas, and fibromas to depigmentation, hemostasis, and decontamination of tooth extraction sockets
Headquartered in Cerritos, CA, Millennium Dental Technologies is the developer of the LANAP protocol for the treatment of periodontal disease and the manufacturer of the PerioLase MVP-7 Nd:YAG free-running pulsed laser. By providing a comfortable experience with unique bone-building clinical results, the company’s FDA-cleared LANAP protocol removes the fear of gum disease treatment, offering a more comfortable and less invasive alternative to conventional surgery. The company’s founding clinician, Robert H. Gregg II, DDS, continues to operate the company with the vision, “It’s all about the patient and the patient comes first,” by creating better clinical outcomes in periodontal disease patients.
