Botox treatments at Newport Beach Dental Center can help reduce fine lines around your mouth and eyes, providing a natural, refreshed result that complements your dental work. For patients who have invested in veneers, whitening, or smile makeovers, Botox addresses the surrounding facial aesthetics that dental work alone cannot — creating cohesion between your smile and your overall appearance.
Dr. Laura Sharbash, DDS, FAGD, D.ABDSM, combines extensive knowledge of facial anatomy with her dental training to administer Botox with the precision that the perioral region demands. Her approach is conservative: the goal is to look refreshed and natural, not to eliminate all expression.
Achieve your dream smile with cosmetic dentistry and flexible financing that makes transformation affordable.
Botox is a safe, highly researched injectable derived from a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. When injected in small, controlled amounts, it temporarily relaxes the facial muscles responsible for creating wrinkles and fine lines. According to the American Academy of Facial Esthetics, Botox is one of the most rigorously studied cosmetic treatments available and has been FDA-approved for cosmetic use since 2002.
Results typically appear within 3–7 days and last 3–4 months. Botox is most commonly used to address:
The procedure typically takes 10–15 minutes with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
Dentists are among the most qualified providers for facial Botox — particularly in the perioral region. Dental training includes deep, hands-on study of facial anatomy, nerves, and musculature, and dentists administer injections as a core part of their clinical practice every day.
Your appointment begins with a consultation to discuss your concerns and desired outcomes. Dr. Sharbash examines your facial structure, recommends the appropriate treatment areas and dosage, and explains the procedure in detail. The injections themselves take 10–15 minutes, using a very fine needle — most patients describe it as a brief pinching sensation.
After treatment, mild redness or swelling at the injection sites typically resolves within a few hours. Aftercare is simple:
Initial results appear within 3–7 days, with full effect at about 2 weeks. A follow-up allows Dr. Sharbash to assess your results and make any adjustments before your next treatment cycle. For patients also served as a cosmetic dentist in Laguna Beach, the same standard of conservative, anatomy-informed technique applies.

The injections themselves take about 10–15 minutes and can often be added to an existing dental appointment. Including consultation, most visits run under 30 minutes.

Yes — Botox is highly effective for TMJ disorders and bruxism. By relaxing the masseter muscles (the powerful chewing muscles), Botox reduces jaw tension, alleviates pain, and protects teeth from clenching and grinding damage. Many patients experience significant relief within days of treatment.
Not when properly administered. Dr. Sharbash takes a conservative approach — the goal is to soften lines while preserving natural expression. Patients look refreshed, not frozen. The amount and placement of Botox is carefully calibrated to each patient’s anatomy and goals.
