It may surprise you to learn that dentists are among the most qualified providers of facial Botox and filler treatments. Dentists spend years mastering the anatomy of the face, jaw, and surrounding musculature — knowledge that directly translates to safer, more precise aesthetic injections. Dr. Modi’s understanding of how facial muscles interact with your bite, smile, and overall facial balance gives her a distinct advantage when designing treatment that looks natural and harmonious.
At Dental Symphony, Botox is offered both therapeutically — for patients experiencing jaw pain, headaches, or teeth grinding related to TMJ dysfunction — and cosmetically, to smooth expression lines around the forehead, eyes, and mouth. Dermal fillers are used to restore lost volume, define facial contours, and complement the results of your smile makeover. With Botox currently available at just $9.99 per unit for therapeutic use, there has never been a better time to explore what these treatments can do for you.

Curious about Botox and fillers at Dental Symphony in Algonquin? Here are the answers to our most frequently asked questions.
Yes. Dentists are highly trained in facial anatomy and have a deep understanding of the muscles, nerves, and structures of the face and jaw. Dr. Modi's dental training makes her exceptionally well-qualified to administer Botox and filler injections safely and precisely. All treatments at Dental Symphony are performed with FDA-approved products and strict clinical protocols.
Therapeutic Botox involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into the jaw muscles to reduce the muscle contractions that cause TMJ pain, jaw tension, and teeth grinding. Many patients experience significant relief from chronic headaches, jaw soreness, and nighttime clenching after treatment. Results typically last three to six months and can be repeated as needed.
Cosmetic Botox results typically last three to four months, after which the muscles gradually resume normal movement and lines may reappear. With regular maintenance treatments, many patients find that results last longer over time as the treated muscles become conditioned. Dr. Modi will recommend a maintenance schedule based on your goals and response to treatment.
The longevity of dermal fillers depends on the product used and the area treated, but most fillers last between 6 and 18 months. Areas with more movement — like the lips — tend to metabolize filler more quickly than areas with less movement. Dr. Modi will discuss expected duration during your consultation based on your specific treatment plan.
Most patients experience little to no downtime after Botox or filler injections. Some minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site is possible and typically resolves within a few days. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol, and lying flat for several hours after treatment to minimize these effects.
In many cases, yes. Combining Botox or filler treatment with a dental appointment is one of the conveniences of receiving aesthetic services at Dental Symphony. Dr. Modi will evaluate your specific situation and let you know whether same-day treatment is appropriate based on the procedures involved.
