Dermal fillers are revolutionizing the landscape of aesthetic dentistry, offering a minimally invasive solution for a multitude of facial concerns.
From enhancing lip volume to smoothing wrinkles and correcting facial asymmetry, these versatile injectables are changing the approach to facial rejuvenation.
As the demand for aesthetic treatments continues to rise, integrating the best dermal fillers into dental practices presents an opportunity for dentists to expand service offerings, attract new patients, retain old ones, and enhance their satisfaction.
As dental clinics embrace the intersection of beauty and dentistry, an assortment of dermal filler products takes center stage, offering patients options for the best facial fillers that seamlessly complement their dental transformations.
Known for their gradual absorption and reversibility with hyaluronidase, HA fillers stand at the forefront of non-invasive facial rejuvenation, ensuring natural-looking results.
Ideal for fine lines, under-eye concerns1, and personalized lip augmentation, these temporary enhancements typically last six months to a year, making them a versatile tool in dental-facial transformations.
Examples: JUVÉDERM®, RESTYLANE®
Ideal for deeper lines and folds, CaHA fillers often outlive even the best hyaluronic acid fillers due to their biocompatible nature, which promotes collagen production and provides longer-lasting (up to 2 years) results.
CaHA’s malleability renders it ideal for sculpting areas like the chin and jawline, while its safety profile minimizes the risk of side effects.
Example: RADIESSE®
This biostimulatory filler takes a different approach, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production over time, resulting in a gradual and natural-looking improvement.
PLLA excels in addressing volume loss and laxity in areas like the midface and cheeks, offering a long-lasting effect (typically up to 2 years) without compromising natural facial movement.
Example: SCULPTRA®
Understanding nuanced differences between these dermal filler injections empowers dental professionals to confidently select the best-suited type of filler for each patient.
