BOTOX



BOTOX (Botox® for Dentistry):

The most common benefit of Botox® is the reduction in the number of clenching events and their intensity. This will reduce the destruction of your teeth, gums, and jaw joint and reduce the discomfort and pain in your face and chewing muscles. The beneficial side-effect is the smoothing of lines between the brows and in the forehead because the muscles are unable to contract. Botox® may actually prevent new wrinkles from forming. Other benefits are that only the injected areas are affected and the results are often seen within 2-3 days. Another possible benefit is that the botullnum toxin does not stay in the body indefinitely, so if there is an adverse effect or mistake made, it is only temporary. There is also the likely possibility that with frequent treatments, the infected muscles will atrophy allowing the patient to go longer between treatments.

Juvéderm™

Juvéderm™is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid -- a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Your healthcare professional eases Juvéderm™ injectable gel under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (nasolabial folds -- the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).

Juvéderm™ provides a smooth, natural look and feel -- so everyone will notice (but no one will know)! In fact, studies show superior results of Juvéderm™ compared to a collagen-based dermal filler.

  • Almost 90% of all study volunteers who were treated with both Juvéderm™ injectable gel and another dermal filler† preferred Juvéderm™!
  • Juvéderm™ injectable gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective for persons of color.
