Frequently Asked Questions
Why might Botox or fillers be discussed in dental or craniofacial care?
Injectable treatment may be considered for selected functional or aesthetic indications after anatomical, medical and dental assessment. The indication must be explained clearly before consent.
Is Botox proven to treat every TMJ or facial pain problem?
No. TMDs and facial pain have different causes, and evidence for botulinum toxin in TMD pain is not conclusive. Diagnosis and conservative options should be considered first.
Is everyone suitable for Botox or dermal fillers?
No. Suitability depends on the indication, anatomy, medical history, medicines, previous procedures, risks and informed expectations.
How long do injectable treatment effects last?
Duration varies with the product, treatment area, dose, metabolism and individual response. A clinician can discuss expected ranges only after assessment.
What should I know about risks and aftercare?
Possible risks and aftercare depend on the product and site. The treating clinician should explain common and serious complications, activity restrictions and when to seek urgent review.
