Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to see results from Botox®?
You may start seeing results within 24-48 hours, with full effects becoming visible after 10-14 days. The use of Botox cosmetic treatment is effective for both dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet, which appear when you move your facial muscles, and certain lines, such as static wrinkles, that are visible when you smile or when your face is at rest. A cosmetic dentist can apply Botox® around the mouth to reduce lines in this area, enhancing your overall appearance.
Are Botox® injections painful?
Most people experience only minor discomfort during Botox® injections, often described as a brief stinging sensation.
How long do the effects of Botox® last?
The effects of Botox® typically last 3-6 months. As the treatment wears off, the treated muscles will gradually regain their ability to contract, and wrinkles around the mouth and other areas will reappear. This treatment might need to be repeated to maintain results.
Are there any side effects of Botox®?
Common side effects of Botox® include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. Rarely, Botox® may cause drooping eyelids, eyebrows, or lips, but this is usually temporary and can be corrected with additional injections.
Who should not get Botox®?
Botox® is not recommended for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding or have certain neurological conditions. Your provider will review your medical history to determine if using Botox® is safe for you.
What is Botox® used for?
Botox® Therapeutic, which has received FDA approval, is designed to relax the muscles in your face, thereby alleviating tension and associated pain. This non-invasive treatment can be beneficial for various conditions, including:
- Bruxism: Botox® Therapeutic can help reduce teeth grinding and jaw clenching, which often causes significant discomfort.
- TMJ disorders: By relaxing the muscles around your mouth and jaw, Botox® Therapeutic can ease pain, improve jaw movement, reduce locking of the jaws, and increase the range of mouth opening. It may also help with ear tinnitus and pain related to TMJ disorders.
- Migraines and Headaches: Botox® Therapeutic injections can help prevent and alleviate the severity of migraines and headaches by targeting specific facial muscles.
- Neck pain: Relaxing the neck muscles with Botox® Therapeutic can relieve chronic neck pain and stiffness.
- Trigger point pain: Botox® Therapeutic can be used to treat muscle pain that radiates to other areas of the body, known as trigger point pain.
If you’re looking to enhance your appearance and address concerns such as static wrinkles or dynamic wrinkles, a consultation with a qualified professional can help determine if Botox® is the right treatment for you.
Why Our Patients Love Us
Dr. Patel is amazing. She saved one of my molars when I was told somewhere else it had to be pulled. She did a crown which fit perfectly. I haven’t had any issues with my crown. I often forget I had one done. She is thorough, and makes you feel so comfortable. I never liked going to the dentist but Dr. Patel makes me look forward to seeing her. I live in the south suburbs and she is worth the drive.
I had my dental appointment yesterday and it was my first most extensive consultation of my teeth ever. Yes, it’s uncomfortable meanwhile interesting to know the condition of my oral health. Dentist Reshma explained thoroughly how concerning the issue I have and the gravity of it. On the other hand, the staffs were doing great in welcoming and accommodating customers. Samantha and the other staff displays their job expertise very well.
Everyone that works in this office is very friendly and professional. I first came in after not having dental insurance for a while, and it had been years since my last dentist visit, and they did a consultation visit to see what needed to be done. They made what is normally an unpleasant experience (cavities and crowns) quick and painless.
Forever Dental on Archer is awesome! I’ve had nothing but great encounters with Dr. Patel and all support staff. I recently started treatment with Invisalign braces and the process has been very comfortable and straightforward. If you are looking for a great Dental office, I’d highly recommend Forever Dental.
My mother has been treated with so much respect here, I had to try them out. Mom was right! I love going to the dentist now, they service on time and with the upmost priority to help and care for you. Every one is friendly, patient, and helpful in terms of communicating the in’s and out’s of the insurance offering, etc. I highly recommend. They have an excellent staff. Thank you Forever Dental ?
I recently visited Forever Dental for my first appointment at the facility , and I couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment I walked in, the office staff, Yessenia and Karla were welcoming and professional, making the check-in process smooth and stress-free, which immediately put me at ease.
Dr. Dhake and the hygienist, Karla, took the time to explain everything in detail, from the x rays, exam process to the treatment plan. They were gentle, thorough, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. I even was offered essential oils -lavender- to help calm my nerves, it helped to relax me and I will use it again next time I visit, I also appreciated how they answered all my questions without making me feel rushed. They were accommodating to my schedule and were able to fit in an X-rays, exam, cleaning and dental work-cavity treatments all in one visit.
This team made the experience of going to the dentist a pleasant one and I feel confident that I’m in great hands here (which hasn’t always been the case at other dentist offices). Now it’s time to make an appointment for my husband, he is long overdue.
If you’re looking for a skilled, caring, and professional dental team, I highly recommend Forever Dental!
