Course Description:

Botox® continues to be one of the most rapidly growing markets in the medical field, with a compound annual growth rate of 12.4% globally (1). Don’t miss out on this amazing and unique course opportunity to add Botox® to your complete health treatment approach! Botox® is most commonly known for its uses in esthetic treatments to soften frown lines and wrinkles. However, many are unaware of its use in the medical and dental fields. Strabismus, hyperhidrosis, and migraine prevention are just a few of the FDA-approved botulinum toxin uses. Off-label uses of Botox® have been rapidly evolving, providing relief where conventional treatment modalities have failed to relieve symptoms. While masseter indication is close to approval, many off-label indications for dental patients are successful including treatment for bruxism, gummy smile, lip lines, and temporomandibular joint and facial pain. Dentists are experts in facial anatomy and are very familiar with the anatomy of the bones and muscles of the head and neck. Administration of Botox® in the dental office is considered safe and predictable once the clinician has undergone didactic quality education. Numerous patients will accept and benefit from this treatment provided in the safety and comfort of your practice environment. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to grow your practice!

This exciting course is set up in two stages:  1) anatomy and protocol lecture and injection demonstration via webinar, followed by an interactive participation course that includes 2) lecture content review, documentation and billing, reconstitution and injection techniques and hands on instructor guided patient injection. This workshop will introduce you to Botox® as one of the most researched medical toxins and it will educate you in the many uses of Botox® and in dentistry. It will provide you with a review of important head and neck anatomical structures. The participant will learn how to perform a complete history, anamnesis and examination for dental patients. Basic injection techniques for myofascial pain, esthetic treatments for Botox®, and trigger point injections will be explained and practiced.
