TRAINING FOR DENTISTS
The Esthetic Skin Institute (ESI) is nationally recognized as the #1 choice in medical esthetic training and certification. ESI has been training dentists since 1997, offering 2 modalities of medical esthetic training. ESI offers a Nationally Recognized Certification in Botulinum Toxin A injections (Botox™/ Dysport™/Xeomin) and dermal filler implantation.
ESI has been invited to speak and train at many various dental conferences, including The American Orthodontic Society, Cerec Dental Conferences and the New Mexico Dental Association. Esthetic Skin Institute undeniably has the most comprehensive hands-on courses offered in Esthetics.
These services are a natural extension of therapeutic and cosmetic treatments that are already being offered in your dental practice. Many dentists are already using Botulinum Toxin A and Dermal Fillers to treat cosmetic/dental issues.
Today, dentists are becoming more aware of the desired look and are cosmetically savvy due to the high demand for beautiful lips. Dentists work with the lips and the perioral area every day. The lips are the drape to your platform and often times you cannot accomplish it all with dental work.
Harmony and balance of the face exists through a wide range of sizes, shapes and configurations of the individual parts. The practitioner must be able to appreciate this in order to understand the changes the face develops and endures over time. The oral-facial area and the dental field cannot be devided. Dentists need to establish a focus on mutual purpose of the two areas in order to achieve optimal results.
The Art and Science of Botulinum Toxin A (will include Dysport™ and Botox™) and The Art of Dermal Fillers is a 2-day comprehensive hands-on certification program (may be taken individually). Day 1 will explore the applications of Botulinum Toxin A for cosmetic purposes with a focus on the most popular areas requested for treatment. Presentation will include an introduction to history and new developments on the horizon of botulinum toxin A, as well as brief analysis of botulinum toxin B. Significant focus on pertinent facial anatomy and physiology will be presented (the cornerstone to safe and effective treatment). The presentation will include mechanism of action, safety and efficacy issues, management and treatment of complications, dilution guidelines, and comprehensive information on proper injection techniques and placement, for desired outcome. Focus will be on upper face application and an introduction to lower face and dental applications will be presented. Our intense hands-on afternoon session will include identifying and mapping areas for injection as well as doing the injections.
On Day 2, ESI will present the history and development and characteristics of dermal fillers (Collagen, Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse, Prevelle, Sculptra, and Silicone). Comprehensive didactic will be presented of the different injection techniques, safety issues, as well as management and treatment of complications. Pain management modalities include topical numbing agents, dental nerve blocks and infiltrations. We will discuss the consultation and assessment process, implement selection criteria of filling agents and explore the importance of establishing realistic patient expectations and patient education to ensure positive patient outcome. The afternoon will provide intense hands-on sessions. We will explore the creative and artistic aspects important for a successful treatment outcome, which will include special techniques to create the look your patients’ desire and ways to treat difficult problem areas.

Esthetic Skin Institute regrets to inform you that due to the increased cost of providing Continuing Education Credits for Dentists, and the down sized classes due to covid, we have decided we will no longer offer the ADA CE's for Dentists at this time. Esthetic Skin Institute Courses meet all the necessary requirements for continuing education credits, and if it is possible for you to self claim credits in your state, you can request 8.5 credits for the Art & science of Botulinum Toxin A Training and as well 8.5 Credits for the Art of Dermal Fillers Training . We will give you a documentation of your hours with your certifications.
