Gentry Dentistry is Proud to Offer BOTOX® and Dermal Fillers
Over the last 35 years, Gentry Dentistry of Suwanee – led by Dr. Harry Gentry and Dr. Darby Tompkins – has secured a solid reputation for skillfully maintaining and enhancing the smiles of the patients we serve. From Preventative Care that includes Cleanings and Dental Exams to Restorative Care that comprises Crowns, Implants, Dentures and more, much of that care relates to oral health. But since a healthy smile involves more than just the teeth and gums, Gentry Dentistry is proud to offer BOTOX® Treatments and Dermal Fillers among our extensive list of Cosmetic Care services. Both can go a long way in reducing the fine lines and wrinkles that are a result of flashing that big, beautiful smile of yours for years. But how do you decide which option is right for you?
BOTOX® Cosmetic Treatments
FDA approved in 2002, BOTOX is enjoying its 20th year as the #1 product of its kind on the market. A temporary cosmetic injection for the treatment of moderate to severe fine lines and wrinkles, appointments take only a matter of minutes to complete with initial results realized in 3-5 days after injection. Patients can expect their treatment to last for approximately 4-6 months. Gentry Dentistry of Suwanee is fully certified to apply BOTOX to smile lines – including the fine lines and wrinkles that may be present on your forehead and around your mouth. The active ingredient in BOTOX – OnabotulinumtoxinA, also known as botulinum toxin type A – causes the facial muscles to relax for a natural, youthful look. As the results begin to wear off, you can simply call Gentry Dentistry at 770-945-5850 to schedule your next treatment.
Dermal Fillers
Also approved by the FDA, Dermal Fillers are hydrating implants injected into soft tissue. They minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while adding a youthful pout or fullness to your lips or cheeks. Fillers can be used as a stand-alone treatment or in addition to BOTOX treatments. While BOTOX tends to focus on frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth, Dermal Fillers are typically concentrated on the cheeks, the lips and the laugh lines that extend from the nose to either side of the mouth. Like BOTOX, the results of Dermal Fillers are temporary, but tend to last longer – typically 6 to 12 months. Once the initial dose is absorbed by the body, you can schedule a new treatment at Gentry Dentistry. Treatments can be completed within minutes, often involve naturally derived ingredients – like hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite, and are a more affordable, less invasive alternative to plastic surgery.
