Benefits of Botox® & Facial Aesthetics

  • Complements your smile

    Facial aesthetics can be coordinated with veneers or whitening for a balanced result.

  • TMJ & grinding relief

    Relaxing the masseter muscles can ease jaw pain and protect dental work.

  • Gummy smile correction

    A few precise units can reduce how much gum shows when you smile.

  • Quick visits

    Treatments take minutes with little to no downtime.

Why see a dentist for Botox®?

Dentists are trained extensively in head and neck anatomy and administer injections daily. That precision is especially valuable for smile-related treatments and for therapeutic use around the jaw.
