THE ART OF THE SMILE, IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT TEETH. YOUR DENTIST CAN HELP RESTORE YOUR SMILE USING DERMAL FILLERS!

Your smile is oftentimes the first aspect of your personality that one sees.  Why let wrinkles get in the way?

Your smile is a very important part of your life.  Dermal fillers, like JUVEDERM XC, can instantly smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds that, with time, form around your smile. The natural maturation of your face may cause the youthful appearance of your smile to be less apparent. With dermal fillers, we, as aesthetically driven dentists, are able to instantly restore the natural harmony of the smile and its surrounding musculature.  The natural collapse of collagen and the surrounding fat pads in the face causes the folds, wrinkles, and lines to appear more prominently as we mature.  This, in turn, also affects the natural curvature of the lips, also known to us as the curtains enveloping our smile.  

Dermal fillers, such as JUVEDERM XC, are injectable gels that are placed into the areas of the facial tissue where moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds occur to temporarily add volume to the skin, giving the appearance of a smoother surface. Smooth and comfortable, JUVEDERM XC is placed into the areas surrounding the smile with the intention to once again restore the harmony and natural shape you once loved or are working hard to preserve.  Ask your dentist about the JUVEDERM XC difference and how it would look best on you.

Dermal fillers may be right for you if you have experienced the following changes around your mouth and smile:

• Nasolabial Folds or Parenthesis Lines on either side of your smile in the area between the corners of your nose and your smile
• Vertical Lip Lines formed from smoking, puckering of the lips, or natural resorption of the underlying collagen and musculature
• Corner Lines on either side of your lips
• Marionette Lines or vertical lines noted alongside the corner of the lips spanning downward toward the sides of your chin

JUVEDERM XC is the first and only FDA-approved HA filler ( hydroxy appetite ) that smooths and restores the natural look of the area surrounding your mouth for up to one year.  Most patients achieve desired results at the initial treatment. Talk to your dentist to make sure your medical history allows you to receive dermal fillers.

The art of a smile is not just about teeth; it involves understanding how the teeth and the smile they create fit into the overall scheme of the face.  The understanding of facial aesthetics allows today's dentist to use available technology to recreate the harmonious beauty seen in a youthful and healthy smile.
