The LANAP protocol received the first and only FDA clearance for True Regeneration – regeneration of new cementum, new periodontal ligaments and new alveolar bone.
LANAP Instructors are trained to teach in methods specifically molded to support adult learning styles for impact and retention. The unique live-patient training spans a twelve month period, with intensive feedback and review.
