What can Botox do for me?

Botox is made from naturally derived proteins that stop the contraction of muscles for approximately three to four months. It's been used medically for several decades to treat muscle spasms, migraines and overactive sweat glands, and has been FDA approved for cosmetic use since 2002. It's primarily used to treat the wrinkles that naturally form around the forehead and eye areas when we smile. By temporarily paralyzingly the muscles underneath the targeted areas, your Findlay dentist can give you a natural and youthful smile.

Why should I visit my dentist for Botox?

It may surprise you that Botox is offered somewhere other than a dermatologist's office, but when it comes down to knowledge, your Findlay dentist has an advanced understanding of the muscles, skin and bone structure associated with the specific areas where Botox is applied. With extensive experience in administering injections for anesthesia and other dental procedures, she has an advantage when applying Botox. Having your "smile lines" treated with Botox at DeClerck Family Dental ensures a safe, comfortable experience with a trained professional in a medical setting.
