Root canal two weeks after dermal filler, what are the risks?

February 6, 2020
Asked By:Straightforward2105 in Auckland, NZ

Unfortunately, I have to do an urgent root a canal just after two weeks since I had a Juvederm dermal filler in my chin and marionette lines. The pain is to much to postpone the procedure. I understand that by now the filler would have settled and unlike to shift. But I mostly worry about infection. What is the real risk of filler getting infected? Can anything be done to prevent it? Thank you so much.
