Meet Dr. Payet

Hi, I’m Dr. Payet, and I’ve been a Char­lotte den­tist ever since 1998, mov­ing here after both under­grad (Class of ‘94) and den­tal school at the UNC-Chapel Hill School of Den­tistry (Class of ‘98).  While not orig­i­nally from here (who is, right?  LOL), I do have deep roots in the area, as my mother grew up in Albe­marle, my dad went to Chapel Hill, and most of my fam­ily is in North Car­olina.  At heart, I am a true-blue Tar Heel!

Some may think it odd that I love being a den­tist, but seriously…I do!  Every day is dif­fer­ent, every patient is unique and spe­cial, there is ALWAYS more to learn, so I get to have fun doing what I do. I’ve attended many of the top post-graduate insti­tutes for Con­tin­u­ing Edu­ca­tion, usu­ally com­plet­ing 55–100 hours of advanced train­ing per year to keep current.

 

Besides being an eter­nal stu­dent, I also enjoy teach­ing, and have done so at the following:

  • As an Adjunct Clin­i­cal Instruc­tor at the UNC School of Den­tistry, help­ing den­tal stu­dents learn;
  • As a Fac­ulty Men­tor at the Nash Insti­tute for Advanced Den­tal Learn­ing, where I taught other den­tists advanced skills in cos­metic dentistry;
  • Founded a Pro­fes­sional Study Club to help all Char­lotte den­tists using the CEREC Same-Day Crown CAD/CAM system;
  • Lec­tur­ing on, and writ­ing a blog about, den­tal pho­tog­ra­phy, help­ing other den­tists inte­grate this use­ful and pow­er­ful com­mu­ni­ca­tion tool into their office;
  • Lec­tur­ing on the ben­e­fits and tech­niques of com­bined Laser Peri­odon­tal Surgery and Den­tal Braces.

Charlotte dentist Dr. Charles Payet with his wife and 2 daughtersI am for­tu­nate and blessed to have three spe­cial women in my life: my wife Fara and our daugh­ters, Natalie and Eliz­a­beth, who keep us very busy; add in 2 dogs (both of whom were pound res­cues), and we have a full home life.

Besides spend­ing qual­ity time with my fam­ily and tak­ing care of you, I some­how man­age to find time to enjoy a cou­ple pas­sions: pho­tog­ra­phy and cook­ing, although I wish I had more time for ball­room danc­ing and reading.

As part of my con­tin­u­ing pro­fes­sional growth, I am cur­rently a mem­ber of the fol­low­ing den­tal organizations:

“Dr. Payet is an amaz­ingly gifted cos­metic den­tist. I liked my smile before but was amazed at the dif­fer­ence the veneers made. His atten­tion to detail and “chair side man­ner” made me com­fort­able dur­ing the entire process.  He gen­uinely cares and goes to great lengths to ensure you are happy and 100% sat­is­fied. I highly rec­om­mend Dr. Payet to any­one look­ing for a great Char­lotte den­tist!”
