Dysport & Botox: Why’s & How’s
Everybody wants to find the fountain of youth. In this everlasting search health professionals have found that Botuli Toxin A found in Dysport and Botox can assist in regaining that youthful look. Dysport and Botox are injections used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age.
What Causes those wrinkles?
Frown lines from normal facial expressions.
Over time, repeated movement of the facial skin by the muscles forms frown lines between the eyebrows. Wrinkles are not only age related. Frown lines are “dynamic”—they happen because of the way a person’s face moves. Because frown lines are created by facial movements such as frowning or squinting, they may develop even in younger adults.
How it works
These are the spots to be injected
With just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and above the eyebrows, Dysport and Botox stop the signals from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines.

Easy, painless way to transform smiles.
Lumineers Expert Dr. David Silber's worldwide published article on Lumineers as a safe, easy and painless way to improve your smile.
The hottest craze in dentistry has been Esthetic Dentistry. It has been taught by many dentists around the world. However, it is still not a main topic in the dental school curriculum. Many continuing education programs are teaching different techniques to give the patient the same result; a beautiful smile. This result can be done with Orthodontics, Crowns, Composite Bonding or Veneers. Each of these categories has its benefits, but when it is said and done, which procedure would you like to get done.
Orthodontics has come along way. In the seventies, it was routine to extract premolars and align teeth. The use of extra oral appa- ratology was routinely used as an adjunct and patient compliance was very low. Today, Orthodontist use digital radiography to assist them in diagnostic and treatment planning. We even have comput- er programs that can predict orthodontic results, like invisalign.
Composite bonding for esthetics reasons is a good fix. However, these restorations stain easily and don’t last as long as we would like.
