Laser-Assisted Ridge Preservation

Take full control of extraction and implant cases with the LARiP™ Protocol – available only on the PerioLase® MVP-7™. With the LARiP™ Protocol, you can stabilize, build and regenerate bone in extraction sockets without the use of membranes while delivering extraordinary results

Prevent alveolar collapse without the use of sutures, membranes, growth factors or PRPs

Disinfect extraction sites

Treat patients in less time and fewer appointments with more comfort and faster recovery

Achieve hemostasis – even for medically compromised patients on anti-coagulants

Why the LARiP™ Protocol?

Bone in extraction sockets naturally degrades and recedes, leading to depressions within the ridge and placing the patient at risk for future implant failure.

The LARiP™ Protocol is designed to decrease bone resorption following tooth extraction, preserve the ridge and increase bone graft stability, as well as avoid bony defects.

Laser-assisted ridge preservation has been shown to deliver better clinical outcomes including greater ridge width following tooth extraction compared with traditional debridement with a curette.¹

The unique wavelength of the PerioLase® MVP-7™ Nd:YAG laser penetrates up to 6 mm in tissue and bone to eliminate pathogens in extraction sites while leaving healthy connective tissue intact.^2,3,4 Meanwhile, the pulse durations of the PerioLase® MVP-7™ provide more conductivity to congeal blood and create a thermogenic clot for bone graft material, eliminating the use of membranes. This helps accelerate healing and reduces the probability of complications.
