Dentist appointment after lip injections?

Question

I had filler( teyosal kiss) put into my lips about a week ago, I have a dentist appointment for a check up and some scaling which will put me at 8 days post injection. My post care instructions say "no squeezing or massaging for couple of hours afterward", I should be ok to get dental work at 8 days after or will it manipulate the product out? Thank you

I'd suggest waiting at least 2 weeks before or after dental work to have filler injections or vice versa.  There are reports of infection being spread from this, which is avoided if waiting between procedures.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi there,Thanks for asking this as its a very important consideration when doing filler. You should not have any dental work done 2 weeks post procedure. As well you should not have any dental work done 2 week prior to the procedure. Dental work will increase your risk of infection around the filler and you can even develop a biofilm, which is very difficult to treat, even with antibiotics. Even if your just getting a simple cleaning, it should not be done 2 weeks before or after your filler
