As title states, am I able to get lip filler with a cavity on my wisdom tooth/ a wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled because of that? Unfortunately, it is in bad condition and majority of the tooth has broken off. However, it is not infected as I did confirm this at the dentist around 2 weeks ago. I will be getting it pulled, but the appointment to do so is two months after filler appointment. I planned on getting around 1 ml of Juvederm Ultra. I wanted to be as safe as possible regarding this.

Answer: Lip filler prior to tooth extraction Hello and thank you for your question. Although it is unlikely that lip filler would be affected by your tooth extraction, it is still best to avoid dental work 1 month prior and 1 month after filler injections. Fillers such as Juvederm are essentially implants and may develop biofilms(bacteria) around them when a tooth is pulled and bacteria enter the bloodstream nearby. This may lead to prolonged inflammation and infection. In all cases it is best to have your procedure performed by an experienced aesthetic physician such as a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.
