About Southlake, Texas
Southlake sits in the northeastern corner of Tarrant County and has grown from a quiet rural community into one of the most sought-after addresses in the entire DFW metroplex. The city is perhaps best known for Southlake Town Square, a pedestrian-friendly hub of shops, restaurants, and community events that gives the city a charming small-town feel despite its proximity to two major airports. Bob Jones Park along Denton Creek offers hiking trails, sports fields, and open green space that draws families outdoors year-round, while Bicentennial Park serves as the heart of community sports leagues and seasonal festivals.
Southlake consistently ranks among the wealthiest and most highly educated cities in Texas, and its Carroll Independent School District is celebrated statewide. Residents tend to be deeply invested in their health and wellbeing, which is reflected in the community's strong emphasis on quality healthcare, fitness, and preventive medicine. That same commitment to health makes Southlake an ideal community for cutting-edge dental care like LANAP — a modern solution for a problem that too many people ignore until it becomes serious.

Frequently Asked Questions — Southlake
How far is Fort Worth Dental from Southlake, and is parking easy?
Our office at 4620 Citylake Blvd W in Fort Worth is roughly 20 minutes from Southlake via TX-114 W or SH-26 S, depending on traffic. We have ample free surface parking directly in front of the building, so you never have to stress about finding a spot before your appointment.
What exactly is LANAP and how is it different from traditional gum surgery?
LANAP stands for Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure. It is an FDA-cleared treatment that uses a specific wavelength of laser energy to selectively remove diseased gum tissue and harmful bacteria while leaving healthy tissue untouched. Unlike traditional periodontal surgery, LANAP requires no cutting with a scalpel and no sutures, which means less discomfort during recovery and a faster return to your normal routine.
Does LANAP actually save teeth, or is it just for mild gum disease?
LANAP is designed to treat moderate to severe periodontal disease — exactly the stage where tooth loss becomes a real risk. The laser stimulates the body's own healing response and can help regenerate the bone and tissue attachment that gum disease destroys. Many patients who were told they might lose teeth have been able to keep their natural teeth after LANAP treatment. Our certified team will evaluate your specific situation and let you know whether you are a good candidate.
How much does LANAP cost, and do you accept insurance?
We accept most major dental insurance plans and will work with your benefits to maximize your coverage for LANAP treatment. Because every patient's level of gum disease and treatment needs differ, we do not publish a one-size-fits-all price. Contact us at (817) 985-3337 to schedule a FREE consultation, and we will provide a personalized treatment plan and cost estimate before any procedure begins.
What is recovery like after LANAP, and will I need to take time off work?
One of the biggest advantages of LANAP over traditional gum surgery is the significantly reduced recovery time. Most patients experience mild soreness for a day or two and are advised to stick to soft foods for a short period. Because there are no incisions or stitches, the healing process is much gentler. Many patients return to desk work the very next day, though individual experiences vary. Your provider will give you detailed post-procedure guidance tailored to your specific treatment.
