When many people think of Botox, getting rid of wrinkles is often the first thing that comes to mind. Botox does more than just erase wrinkles and lines, though – it also has a wide-reaching variety of positive effects and a number of medical uses, including dentistry.
Botox has garnered worldwide favor as the treatment of choice for retaining a youthful appearance. Since Botox is minimally invasive, it’s also becoming a great tool for certain dental treatments. Botox in dentistry is expanding to treat dental conditions like high lip lines, Bruxism, TMJ, dentures no longer fitting due to shifting jaw muscles, clenching, masseter hypertrophy, Temporomandibular disorders, and to treat functional or aesthetic dental conditions like high lip lines, nasolabial folds, radial lip lines, black triangles between teeth, and more.
Dermal fillers are used to reduce the signs of aging, minimize skin depressions and scars, and address fine lines and deep wrinkles or folds in the skin of the face. Fillers can also be used on hollow areas below the eyes.
There are several types of dermal fillers and they are usually injected in the areas around your eyes, mouth, and nose. This common cosmetic procedure typically produces results right away, and can last months or multiple years.

Dermal fillers work differently than Botox. Dermal fillers fill in different areas of your face to increase volume, reduce lines, and help your facial features appear lifted and younger.
