Can I have dental work done 1 week after masseter Botox? What are the risks?

Thank you for your question. Botox starts to take effect for most people about 2-4 days after injection. Either way, this shouldn't have any effect on the surgery. In fact, by weakening your masseter muscle, the procedure may actually be just a hair easier. I hope everything goes well, and thank you again for your question.

I strongly suggest you consult with your physician to discuss what they best advice. You'll need medical clearance before proceeding. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question. There should not be any issue with you having the dental work one week after Botox injection.

I recommend waiting at least 2 weeks post Botox before having dental work. It takes 10-14 days for Botox results to show, and it would be best to see results first.

You should be fine to proceed with your dental work a week after having your Botox injection. The product is injected into the muscle and should not interfere with the planned dental work. If you have concerns, speak with your dental provider.

Hello! A week after applying Botox there should be no problem as the product has settle.Eventhough, you should consult it with your dentist so they can do an in person check up.

Dear Intellectual,
Great question.
In general the Botox is injected into the muscle and will not migrate more than a few millimeters. It is advised not to do vigorous activity for 4 hours after an injection. I’m the case of dental work, waiting 1 day between treatments is prudent.

Hello and thank you for your question. We always recommend a face-to-face consultation for advice however from what you have provided here it would not affect the botox but its likely the botox has not taken effect yet. To plan its best to allow for at least 2 weeks from botox to other facial work.
I hope that helps, please always a seek a qualified and experienced practitioner for any cosmetic treatment, best wishes
