The rising popularity of lip fillers necessitates a deeper understanding for dental professionals, who often encounter patients with these aesthetic enhancements. This continuing education course equips dentists and hygienists with the knowledge and skills to manage lip filler patients effectively.
 

This lecture will demystify lip fillers while diving deep into common types like hyaluronic acid-based fillers, poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), and permanent silicone options. Through thoroughly exploring their unique chemical compositions, mechanisms of action, and distinguishing characteristics—such as duration of effect and potential reversibility—participants will emerge equipped to recognize both short and long-term effects, anticipating and effectively managing any arising situations. Additionally, the learners will learn to identify inflammatory reactions, understand their mechanisms, and be prepared to manage tissue trauma scenarios while equipped with strategies for minimizing disruption and promoting healing.
 

By participating in this course, the learner will gain the knowledge and skills to navigate the growing prevalence of lip fillers confidently, with a deeper understanding of the complexities involved, while ensuring optimal oral health outcomes, solidifying our role as a trusted advisor in the ever-evolving landscape of aesthetic enhancements.
