As we grow older, we develop lines and wrinkles around our eyes, nose, and mouth, and in our forehead. These developments can make you look older, but we can help with cosmetic dentistry. In today’s blog, your team at Delightful Dental Care in Kansas City, MO, talks about Botox and Dermal Fillers, which can help you enjoy a younger appearance after one short visit to the office!
Botox
Our team can administer Botox to help ease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the face. This is administered through injections to specific areas of the face, including between the eyebrows, the corner of the eyes, and in the forehead. The form of the botulism toxic that is administered then interrupts signals between the muscles to prevent the contractions that lead to wrinkles and other signs of aging. The effects can last for months to come, so we can re-administer this as part of your routine checkup visit. The administration process takes seconds, and you can see results shortly afterward!
Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers are another injectable medication to help prevent common signs of aging, so you have a more youthful appearance. This option helps fill deep lines around the nose and mouth, including the nasolabial folds. This can also help plump your lips and ease lines at the corners of your mouth. Again, the results can last for months to come, and we can re-administer them as part of a checkup and cleaning visit.
Helping TMJ and Bruxism
Dr. Shpak can conduct both of these procedures and is certified by the Esthetic Skin Institute! But did you know these treatments can also help improve the health of your smile too? For people with TMJ disorder and bruxism, stress and strain in the jaw and facial muscles can lead to painful symptoms and stress on your bite. Damage to your teeth is possible too! But with options like Botox and Dermal Fillers, we can help decrease the strains and stress in the facial muscles to ease symptoms of TMJ disorder and bruxism, so you avoid further pain in the face, jaw, and head, and you avoid popping or clicking in the jaw. We could also help with a custom oral appliance.
