Santa Barbara's LANAP Specialist — One of Only 3 Qualified Providers Within 30 Miles

Why Patients Choose Dr. Heath Montgomery

  • One of Only 3 Providers Within 30 Miles Qualified to Offer LANAP & LAPIP LANAP and LAPIP are not available at most dental practices. They require specific training and the PerioLase® MVP-7 laser — equipment and expertise that fewer than a handful of providers in the entire Santa Barbara region possess. If you've been told you need traditional gum surgery, or that your implant needs to come out, this is the treatment most local dentists simply cannot offer you.

  • No Cutting. No Stitches. Your Best Chance to Save Your Teeth. Traditional gum surgery cuts away tissue and requires sutures. LANAP uses a precision laser to remove only the diseased tissue and bacteria — leaving healthy tissue completely intact. The result is dramatically less discomfort, faster healing, and a proven ability to regenerate bone around teeth that would otherwise be lost. Treat your whole mouth for a little more than the cost of a single tooth implant.

  • A Predictable Financial Plan for the Full First 6 Months Dr. Montgomery structures LANAP and LAPIP as a packaged fee for the first 6 months — so there are no surprise bills at each visit. You'll know exactly what you're committing to before treatment begins. Flexible payment options are available through Proceed Finance and Cherry, including 0% interest plans.

FAQ's

Am I a candidate for LANAP — and how do I find out?

The only way to know for sure is through a proper evaluation. Dr. Montgomery will assess the health of your gums, bone levels, and any implants during your consultation — and give you an honest answer about whether LANAP or LAPIP is right for your specific case. If you are not a candidate, the $150 consultation fee is waived.

How is LANAP different from traditional gum surgery?

Traditional gum surgery involves cutting away infected tissue with a scalpel and suturing the gums back — which means significant discomfort and a longer recovery. LANAP uses the PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to target only diseased tissue and harmful bacteria, leaving healthy tissue intact. There are no cuts, no stitches, and the procedure has FDA clearance for true periodontal regeneration — meaning it can actually help rebuild bone that has been lost.

What is LAPIP and can it save a failing implant?

LAPIP is the implant-specific version of LANAP. It uses the same PerioLase® MVP-7 laser to treat peri-implantitis — the bacterial infection around a dental implant that causes bone loss and eventual implant failure. If you've been told your implant needs to be removed, LAPIP may be able to treat the infection and save the implant. Dr. Montgomery will evaluate this during your consultation.

Is the LANAP procedure painful? What is recovery like?

Most patients are pleasantly surprised. Because there is no cutting or stitching involved, discomfort during and after LANAP is significantly less than traditional surgery. Dr. Montgomery also provides IV sedation for patients who want a more relaxed experience. The first month of the protocol requires following a structured schedule — which is the most important phase for achieving the best long-term results.

How much does LANAP/LAPIP cost and what are the payment options?

Dr. Montgomery offers a packaged fee covering the full first 6 months of LANAP or LAPIP treatment — so you have complete cost certainty from the start. Payment plans are available through Proceed Finance and Cherry Financing, including 0% interest options. Your consultation will include a full breakdown of costs before any decision is made.

How many treatments will I need?

In most cases, only one LANAP treatment is needed for each area being treated. Some areas may require retreatment down the road depending on how the condition progresses. The first month of the protocol follows a specific schedule that is essential for the best outcome — Dr. Montgomery will walk you through the full timeline at your consultation.

What if I'm not ready to commit yet?

That's completely fine. Your consultation is simply an opportunity to get honest answers, understand your options, and find out whether LANAP is right for you — with no pressure to move forward on the day.
