Are Dentists the Best Type of Practitioners To Give You Botox?

Dentists and Botox. Seriously?

Surely dentists should be sticking to tooth pain, fillings and teeth whitening rather than fixing my frown lines and laugh lines?

When you go to your dentist to get a filling, after the appointment, the dentist doesn’t usually turn to you and say, ‘Do you want to get your forehead lines fixed as well?’. Well, that would be rude, right? But offering non-surgical aesthetics treatments is quite common among dentists.

Let us help you understand why dentists are probably, one of the best people to see for your Botox.

Why Do Dentists offer Botox?

Dentists are by far one of the most highly qualified and medically trained professions. They study for five years and must do additional training to be qualified in facial aesthetics; that’s over 6 years in training.

So, would you feel more comfortable with someone who has no knowledge of the anatomy or without any medical qualifications/training or a highly qualified dentist?

No contest, right?!

Why Are Dentists good at Botox?

Dentists use their hands all day. Their control over a needle or any other dentistry tool is second to none. Think about it this way, their office is your mouth, and they work to fix problems in that tiny space. However, being a dentist isn’t all about fixing teeth; the head and neck region is their domain, and they’ve spent five years learning about the nerves, blood supply and facial muscles.  Dentists will spend their whole training and career using dental injections repeatedly and accurately.

So, they are very precise, and that’s why dentistry and aesthetics go hand in hand.

Why do Dentists enjoy aesthetics?

Here’s what our practitioner, Dr Chandarana, who is a dual-qualified cosmetic dentist and facial aesthetics practitioner, had to say:

“I love being able to provide treatments that make such a positive impact on the everyday lives of her patients, from boosting their confidence, making them feel happier, smiling more and feeling less self-conscious.

I know I can deliver high-quality non-surgical treatments, having trained amongst the leading experts at a multi-award-winning academy on Harley Street.

I look to provide a youthful restoration, a more balanced facial profile and natural enhancement of facial features. My patients often say their skin is left feeling refreshed, smoother, more hydrated and beautified following treatment.

The two most important principles that I follow are safety and understanding. I will always allow the time to discuss all your concerns to ensure all questions are answered, provide you with all the information you may need to feel content with your treatment, and always discuss achievable results.”
