Botox and Dermal Fillers
Dr. Gretchen Kelley is certified through the American Academy of Facial Esthetics to offer Botox and Dermal Fillers to our patients.
Why see the dentist for Botox or Dermal Fillers?
Cosmetic dentistry is about more than just your smile.
Combining your dental treatment with Botox and dermal fillers allows us to give a natural-looking enhancement to the appearance of your whole face. Botox and dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm, can improve the appearance of lips, fine lines, and even jowls.
Botox is not only used for cosmetic reasons. Treatment with Botox has been shown to improve symptoms of migraines and tension-type headaches and reduce clenching and grinding of your teeth as well.
As a dentist, Dr. Gretchen Kelley understands the facial anatomy extensively. She can give skillful injections that are comfortable and produce natural-looking results. You also have the option to be numb for your dermal filler injections, which greatly increases your comfort during the procedure.
About Botox and Dermal Fillers
Botox is FDA-approved to temporarily treat fine lines on the face and has been used for cosmetic purposes for more than 20 years. Botox works by relaxing the muscles of facial expressions that cause wrinkles. The results of Botox can last up to three months. Botox is also FDA-approved for the temporary relief of headaches and can be used to alleviate TMJ pain.
Juvéderm is a hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler and is the most popular compound for restoring lost volume and fullness to the face. Juvéderm is used to treat deeper wrinkles or folds in the mid-face, as well as to enhance the volume or symmetry of the lips.

Botox at Kelley Family Dental: Your Guide to a Youthful Look

Here at Kelley Family Dental, we do more than just regular Dental check-ups.
We’re also proud to offer Botox treatments to our patients in Albuquerque, New Mexico and the surrounding areas.
Botox, a brand name for Botulinum Toxin, is a protein that can temporarily stop the muscle from moving. Another brand that we use frequently at our office is Xeomin, which does the same thing.
While Botox is widely recognized for its cosmetic uses like reducing wrinkles and fine lines, it’s also effective in treating therapeutic dental conditions.
For instance, Botox can help manage TMJ disorders. This condition can result in jaw pain, headaches, and difficulties chewing. By relaxing the face and jaw muscles, Botox can alleviate pain and enhance function. Choosing Kelley Family Dental for your Botox treatment means you’re in for a complete and personalized experience. We kick things off with an in-depth consultation where we talk about what you want to achieve, take a good look at your facial structure, and walk you through the botox process.
This helps us customize the treatment to your unique needs, making sure we deliver the best results possible.
Sometimes patients want a big change in their appearance, appear other want something more subtle, which is why we always personalize the treatment plan to each individual.
The Botox procedure itself is pretty fast, usually taking around 10-15 minutes. We use a thin needle to inject Botox into specific muscles on your face. The number of injections you’ll need will depend on the areas you want to treat.
Botox works by blocking the nerve signals in the muscles where it’s injected, leading to a temporary decrease in muscle activity. This Smooths the skin and reduces the visibility of wrinkles and fine lines.
Once the treatment is done, you won’t need much downtime. You can get back to your regular routine right away, but we recommend avoiding touching your face and any heavy exercise for 24 hours after the treatment.
You can typically start seeing results in 2-10 days and these can last up to 3 months.
At Kelley Family Dental, we take pride in offering a safe and comfortable environment for all our treatments. We stick to the highest hygiene and patient care standards.
Plus, our experienced team is always ready to answer any questions or address any concerns you may have.
