Neurotoxin for Dentist

The program focuses on functional, therapeutic, and aesthetic indications relevant to dentistry, including bruxism, masseter hypertrophy, TMJ-related muscle hyperactivity, gummy smile, and perioral balance.

Emphasis is placed on orofacial anatomy, dental occlusion, muscle dynamics, and scope-specific safety, enabling dentists to apply neurotoxin treatments responsibly within their professional domain.
