Take Stress off Your Face! Botox® and Dermal Fillers for a Refreshed Look It’s the final touch to your brand new look. While it is not cosmetic dentistry, many of our patients are looking for a more natural youthful appearance, and the deep lines that often form on the brow or around the mouth can detract from your beautiful, new smile. If your wrinkles are caused by stress and muscle habit, Botox is the perfect solution. Think of it as a gentle muscle relaxant for your frown lines. The procedure is easy – it only takes a few minutes – you don’t need any anesthesia, and in three to seven short days, you will see the remarkable full effects. With a quick injection, you will look more relaxed and feel more vibrant with no downtime and no recovery. Dermal fillers are another popular way our patients complete their smiles. Dermal fillers create a more natural appearance than surgical face lifts. They are injected below the skin and are used to raise scar depressions, replace volume loss, reduce or even eliminate wrinkles and plump or enhance lips. Isn’t your gorgeous smile worth it? Botox for TMJ, Bruxism and Facial Pain Although Botox started its life as a neurotoxin, researchers discovered that injecting minute amounts of the substance into overactive muscles decreases muscle activity – and with it the wrinkles caused by activity – by paralyzing the surrounding muscles. Because of these effects, Botox can also benefit TMJ suffers, those who grind their teeth or suffer from bruxism and those who suffer chronic facial pain by significantly improving muscle tone and reducing muscle contractions or spasms. The Botox procedure is very simple and relatively comfortable. Botox can be injected into very specific parts of the muscle, especially the parts that are the most painful or the most tense. It does cause localized weakness, but this is actually the desired result. When the muscles relax, our treatment techniques can be used to astonishing effect. That means a more pain-free lifestyle and renewed sense of self. It is safe and its effectiveness has been proven by thousands of satisfied users. Botox After Your Cleaning The positive effects of Botox increase with every use. If you love the effects of Botox and decide to continue treatment either for pain relief or for cosmetic purposes, why not schedule your Botox treatment to coincide with your regular cleanings? It is the most practical and convenient way to take care of yourself and feel great!
