Botox™ & Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dental treatments, like veneers and crowns, require careful consideration of size, shape and symmetry of both the face and the dental restoration to achieve a functional and beautiful result. Athens general and cosmetic dentist Dr. Lane Barker applies the same care and consideration when administering Botox™ for his patients.
Our facial expressions cause repeated contraction of the muscles around our eyes, forehead and mouth, leading to lines and wrinkles as we age. Botox™ (botulinum toxin) is an injectable medication that relaxes muscle contraction in targeted areas of the face to restore a more youthful appearance.
Botox™ can smooth the appearance of:
- Fine lines around the eyes - “crow's feet”
- “Laugh lines” around the nose and mouth
- Wrinkles around the lips and chin
- Forehead wrinkles and “frown lines” between the brows
Do you ‘show too much teeth’ when you laugh, or have a ‘gummy smile’? Botox™ can soften a high lip line to help you feel more confident in the appearance of your smile.
