Q: Hi. I had LANAP done about 2 years ago. I have followed up with regular maintenance appointments every 3-4 months since then. They use a laser in the cleaning sessions. My question: Do I have to continue going to the same dentist for my cleanings? Would a dentist that does laser cleanings suffice? Or do I need to continue going to the office that did my LANAP?
Thanks!
A: I would continue with the dentist (Periodontist?) who did your LANAP. They should know your periodontal situation the best, and be best qualified to maintain you, since the original work was done by them.
