Drs. Steven White and Brad Haines Treat Gummy Smiles in Charlotte with Laser Dentistry

We want our patients to have their treatment done right in the least amount of time, so they don’t have to come back multiple times.

Drs. Steven White and Brad Haines welcome patients with or without a referral to receive virtually painless gum recontouring treatment with laser dentistry in Charlotte, NC. Laser dentistry allows the doctors to help patients suffering from a gummy smile or who are affected by gum disease by gently removing excess or infected tissue. Using the Odyssey® Diode Laser, soft tissue treatments can be performed without the need for scalpels or sutures.

“We want our patients to have their treatment done right in the least amount of time, so they don’t have to come back multiple times. We are very particular in our procedures, which is why we invest in modern dental technology like laser dentistry,” says Dr. White. “Our primary goal for any patient that comes in here is to let them know they matter and they are the most important person.”

Laser dentistry is an advanced form of dental technology that uses gentle laser light to treat soft tissue concerns instead of invasive scalpels and sutures. This solution drastically cuts down on the overall treatment time, discomfort and healing time for patients over traditional methods. White and Haines Advanced Dentistry utilizes the Odyssey Diode Laser, which cuts and coagulates at the same time. This process immediately prevents excessive bleeding, causes less tissue damage and promotes less postoperative healing time with fewer complications.

Soft tissue treatments that can benefit from laser dentistry typically include gummy smile care and gum disease surgery. Since the soft tissues are sensitive areas of the mouth, precision and gentleness must be used at all times, and with laser dentistry, patients can expect just that. Those diagnosed with a gummy smile typically have an excess of gum tissue that covers their teeth, making the teeth appear short and often harboring bacteria underneath. With laser dentistry, the excessive gum tissue can be carefully removed and reshaped to provide a healthy, attractive smile. For cases of gum disease, infected tissue can be removed and healing can begin almost immediately after treatment.

White and Haines Advanced Dentistry offers modern solutions to both aesthetic and functional dental concerns.
