Cosmetic Injectables by Your Dentist in SW Calgary

A cosmetic injectable is an isolated, biological protein that is administered into certain areas of the body to address muscle tension. These proteins are encouraged your muscles to relax, thereby reducing the prevalence of wrinkles, crow’s feet, and frown lines. Often, they’re injected into your forehead and around your eyes, lips, and brows. Injectables can be used to treat migraines, bruxism (the clenching and grinding of your teeth, which usually occurs while you sleep), and temporomandibular disorder (TMJ), which refers to having limited jaw motion and pain. Two commonly used injections are Botox and Dysport, both of which are offered by our dentist in SW Calgary. While Botox is quite versatile and is used to remedy multiple issues, Dysport is primarily used to eliminate frown lines. What a lot of people may not realize is that dentists can administer cosmetic injectables. They possess much knowledge about the biological systems in not just your oral cavity but your head, neck, and shoulders too, are trained to give needles, and maintaining a clean, treatment environment is a staple of this line of work. For more information about this, give our local SW Calgary dentist a call! We’ll be happy to help you however we can.
