Case: 13213 Category: Crowns & Bridges Gender: Male Skin Tone: Dark Description: This patient from Charlotte, North Carolina came to our practice and wanted to fix the spaces between his teeth. He was also concerned about his "black gums". This is where the gums that are usually pink have much more pigment in them. Unusual gum pigmentation characteristics typically occur more frequently in some cultures. A common complaint is having brown or dark brown gums. For some patients the effects are more pronounced, resulting in a darkened, solid shade of brown throughout all tissues. Carotene and hemoglobin are the common pigments that contribute to the coloration of gum tissue. The Waterlase Dental Laser has been used to provide the most efficient and safe treatment for altering melanin pigmentation in the gingival tissues. The result is aesthetically correct pink gums. Almost any degree of pigmentation problem can be overcome with skilled application of the Waterlase Dental Laser. Lasing treatments for removing melanin deposits use a minimum of anesthesia. The process is essentially pain free.
