The Therapeutic Use of Botulinum Toxin & the Aesthetic Side Effects

About this Seminar

Have you dabbled in Botulinum Toxin treatment? Are you curious and want to learn more?

In this lecture, Dr. Roberts explains how the multiple mechanisms of action of Botulinum Toxin have an impact far beyond facial wrinkles and why a detailed understanding of the anatomy of the face and neck is paramount to successful therapeutic and aesthetic treatment. Learn how the secondary and tertiary mechanisms of action affect pain modulation and have a major impact on adjunctive therapy for TMD and headache treatment. Muscle relaxation of sensitive periodontal tissues with Botulinum Toxin prior to surgery can have a significant influence on implant success. Learn how Botulinum Toxin can impact your practice in ways you have never before considered!

OBJECTIVES:

• Describe the synergy between the therapeutic & aesthetic uses of Botulinum Toxin.


• Describe how Botulinum Toxin can interface with implants, TMD, perio, endo, ortho, for more positive treatment outcomes.


• Explain why an in-depth understanding of anatomy is crucial for positive patient outcomes.

About Dr. Warren Roberts

Co-founder & Clinical Director, PTIFAT

Dr. Warren Roberts is a general dentist who has been in practice in Vancouver, BC for 40+ years. After attending several botulinum toxin and facial rejuvenation training programs earlier in his career, Dr. Roberts was concerned with the level of training that was being provided in this field. To be an exceptional practitioner with no negative side effects, Dr. Roberts believes you need not only a deep level of understanding of head and neck anatomy, but also a deep understanding of specific practices and injection techniques that make the patient experience remarkable. The result was the development of PTIFA – a training institute that provides an unprecedented depth of clinical theory, hands-on teaching and practice integration (including team training modules) in the field of facial rejuvenation (botulinum toxin, fillers, lasers, and more).

Dr. Roberts is recognized by Dentistry Today as one of the top 100 CE speakers. Dr. Roberts is also a leading botulinum toxin educator in North America, who teaches physicians, dentists, nurses and who’s practice has been stated as the number one dental provider of botulinum toxin, in North America. Since 2008, he has trained over 8,000 doctors nationally and internationally, and has treated hundreds of botulinum toxin, patients.
