Enhance Your Appearance
Our services in facial aesthetics represent the latest for what innovations in modern medicine has to offer. At Comfy Smile Dental, we are dedicated to providing you with quality care.
This includes rejuvenating your appearance with treatments in Botox, as well as improving your overall health with Platelet-Rich Plasma. Learn about these aesthetic dental procedures we offer.
BOTOX®
Botox is an excellent option for patients who want to reduce wrinkles and add fullness to their faces. This non-surgical treatment will give you a vibrant, contoured look made to restore your self-confidence.
Botox smooths out wrinkles around your eyes, forehead, nose, and mouth so you can appear more youthful and dynamic. Known as a botulinum toxin injection, it works to block signals from the nerves and muscles, allowing wrinkles to soften and relax.
Although Botox is not permanent, your treatment results will last for three to six months, making you look younger. Our trained practitioners can help you achieve a more youthful look with this simple procedure.
Dermal Fillers
We also offer dermal fillers as an aesthetic treatment for our patients. Fillers are used by Drs. Cortes and Prieto to “plump up” the area around the mouth or in the lips.
Dermal fillers are safely injected into the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines, as well as to help high lip line cases, uneven lips, and to make the peri-oral area more esthetic. Learn more about this highly-favored facial aesthetic treatment at our Davie office.
Platelet-Rich Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can be used in conjunction with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to promote healing in dental surgery procedures, such as bone grafting, dental implants, wisdom tooth extraction, and more.
PRP is designed to help make your recovery easier and more comfortable. When you leave our dental office, your surgical area will already begin healing with this new dental advancement.
Benefits of PRP/PRF
By drawing some of your own blood, we’re able to concentrate it into PRP/PRF, and then implement it during surgery. This process has many benefits, including:
- Facilitates recovery process
- Promotes regeneration of tissue & bone
- Reduces swelling & inflammation after surgery
- Helps to prevent infection
- Protects against harmful bacteria
Frequently Asked Questions
Facial aesthetics in dentistry are used to smooth out the fine line that appears around the mouth to enhance a person’s appearance. Sometimes, facial aesthetics can be used to help dental problems such as bruxism or TMJ disorder.
Here at Comfy Smile Dental, Dr. Cortes can provide you with a more youthful look with Botox. He also offers platelet-rich plasma which is a technique used to speed up the healing period for our dental patients.
Botox works by injecting it into the facial muscles to block nerve impulses, which temporarily relaxes those muscles which underlie and cause wrinkles. Our patients will start to see results anywhere from 24 hours after injection up to 12 days later, with the peak effect being 2-3 weeks after your appointment.
The results of our patients will vary, but most find that their injections last about 3-4 months.
When you receive Botox, you may experience some side effects, but not all patients do. Some side effects you should be aware of include:
- Redness
- Bruising
- Infection
- Dizziness
- Mild difficulty swallowing
- Respiratory infections such as cold or flu
- Nausea
- Headaches
- Muscle weakness
Yes, PRP/PRF is an extremely safe and effective technique used to help our patients have a more comfortable recovery from their dental treatment.
This method uses a patient’s own blood to help promote a quicker healing process and it is completed efficiently at our Davie, FL office.
