At Holmes Family & Cosmetic Dentistry in Fort Wayne, IN, we go beyond smiles. In addition to expert dental care, Dr. Holmes offers Botox and dermal fillers to help you look and feel your best.

Uses for Botox and Dermal Fillers
Botox and dermal fillers are versatile treatments that can help both cosmetic and functional concerns. Some of the ways our patients benefit include:
- Smoothing wrinkles and fine lines: Reduce frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles for a refreshed, youthful look.
- Enhancing facial volume: Dermal fillers can restore fullness to cheeks, lips, and other areas of the face.
- TMJ and jaw tension relief: Botox can help relax overactive jaw muscles, reducing discomfort and tension headaches associated with TMJ disorders.
- Gummy smile correction: Botox can help improve the appearance of a gummy smile by relaxing certain upper lip muscles.
- Non-surgical facial contouring: Dermal fillers can enhance facial features without invasive surgery.
Whether your goal is cosmetic enhancement or relief from muscle-related discomfort, these treatments offer effective results with minimal downtime.
Types of Treatments We Offer
At Holmes Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we provide personalized treatment plans to meet your individual needs.
Botox
Botox is a purified protein that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles. By blocking nerve signals in these areas, Botox smooths wrinkles and can reduce muscle tension in the jaw. The procedure is quick, often taking only 10-15 minutes, and results typically appear within a few days. Botox treatments are ideal for forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, and jaw tension related to TMJ disorders.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are gently injected under the skin to restore volume, improve facial contours, and soften deep lines. Fillers can enhance lips, cheeks, and other areas of the face for a natural, youthful appearance. The effects are immediate, and most patients experience little to no downtime. Our team carefully customizes each treatment to achieve subtle, beautiful results that complement your natural features.
Both Botox and dermal fillers are safe, FDA-approved treatments when performed by a trained professional like Dr. Holmes.
Botox for TMJ Relief
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders can cause jaw pain, headaches, teeth grinding, and facial tension. Botox offers an effective, non-surgical option to help relieve these symptoms. When injected into the overactive jaw muscles, Botox temporarily relaxes them, reducing tension and discomfort. This can ease jaw clenching, decrease teeth grinding, and minimize associated headaches. Many patients notice improvement within a few days, and treatments can be repeated as needed to maintain relief. By addressing TMJ with Botox, you can experience not only functional benefits but also a more relaxed and comfortable smile.
