Non-Surgical · Minimally Invasive · Same-Day Results
The only practice in Carmel offering this exclusive, non-surgical treatment for gum recession. Gum Builder Therapy uses biocompatible calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) filler to restore receding gumlines — reducing tooth sensitivity, closing black triangles between teeth, and stimulating collagen production for lasting results. It is a minimally invasive, virtually pain-free alternative to traditional gum grafting, with results visible immediately after treatment.
TMJ Relief · Bruxism · Facial Rejuvenation · AAFE Certified
Dr. Tannous is an AAFE-certified Botox provider — one of a small number of dentists in Indiana with this specialized training. We offer dental Botox for TMJ (temporomandibular joint) pain relief, bruxism (teeth grinding) treatment, and subtle facial rejuvenation. Botox administered by a trained dentist offers unique precision around the oral and facial musculature. Treatments are quick, in-office, and require no downtime.
Clear · Removable · Adults & Teens · 6–18 Month Treatment
Straighten your smile discreetly with SureSmile — a clear aligner system designed for teens and adults who want results without traditional metal braces. SureSmile uses advanced 3D imaging and precision-engineered aligner trays to move teeth efficiently and comfortably. Treatment is fully customized to your smile, and the clear trays are virtually invisible, removable, and easy to maintain. Most patients see meaningful improvement within 6 to 18 months.
Safe · Fast-Acting · No Hangover · All Ages Welcome
Dental anxiety should never stand between you and the care you need. We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) sedation to help patients of all ages relax comfortably during treatment. Nitrous oxide is safe, fast-acting, and wears off quickly — most patients can drive themselves home immediately after. It is a gentle, non-invasive option that makes even the most anxious patients feel at ease throughout their appointment.
Inclusive · Patient-Centered · All Abilities Welcome
Every patient deserves exceptional dental care, regardless of ability. Our team has extensive experience providing patient, compassionate care for individuals with physical, cognitive, developmental, or sensory needs. We take additional time, use adapted communication, and tailor every aspect of the appointment to each patient’s comfort level. Dr. Tannous is also a proud partner of the Special Olympics Healthy Athletes Program, reflecting our deep commitment to inclusive dental care in the Carmel community.
Gum recession is one of the most common and overlooked dental concerns — and until recently, the only solution was surgical gum grafting. Carmel West Dentistry is the only practice in Carmel, Indiana offering Gum Builder Therapy, a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment that uses biocompatible calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) filler to restore receding gumlines.
This innovative treatment directly addresses gum recession by restoring lost tissue volume, reducing tooth sensitivity, eliminating black triangles between teeth, and stimulating natural collagen production for lasting results. The procedure is performed in a single appointment, is virtually pain-free, and results are visible immediately — with no surgery, no grafts, and no extended recovery time.
No other dental practice in Carmel, Indiana currently offers Gum Builder Therapy. It is a unique, advanced treatment available only here.
