"Lip Fillers" and Cosmetic Dentistry

One of the newest treatments on the frontier of cosmetic dentistry is Juvederm and Restylane. These are injectable fillers that can create fullness in the lips,as well as to eliminate "smiles lines". We have all been taught that the lips are the frame for the smile, and the teeth represent the "artwork". An increasing number of restorative dentists have embraced these techniques and are incorporating them into their daily esthetic dentistry practices. What are thoughts about this? Any experience?

  • Why do we want to be attractive? American culture places value on beauty and youth. The face is the main focus of one's appearance, it represents a person's identity.The goal of Aesthetics in Dentistry is to enhance facial features and therefore help the patient achieve their perception of beauty.
    As a dentist certified in the combined use of dermal fillers and botox, I can provide my patients with superior outcomes as it pertains to their lips and smile line .What are fillers? Human based or synthetically produced substances that are injected just below the surface of the skin: fill in lines, wrinkles or scars and restore or add volume to the lips. The results are immediate and the material is gradually absorbed by the body.
    As dentists with a thorough understanding of facial anatomy, who is better equipped to perform these type of treatments? For more information please contact www.Aesthetics-in-Dentistry.com
