Botulinum toxin treatment should be planned by muscle anatomy and treatment goal rather than package name.
What is the difference between forehead Botox and full-face Botox?
Forehead treatment focuses on selected upper-face muscles. “Full face” is a marketing term that can refer to different combinations of areas and should not imply one standard injection plan.
What matters most?
Treating one muscle group can affect the visual balance of another, which is why facial movement is assessed dynamically.
- Forehead movement
- Frown muscles
- Brow position
- Crow’s feet
- Lower-face muscles when clinically appropriate
- Previous Botox response
Why the answer can be different for each patient
Muscle strength and facial proportions are different in every patient.
What should you ask during consultation?
- Which muscles are being treated?
- What movement will remain?
- What dose is planned?
- What result is realistic?
Botulinum toxin is a medical treatment with potential adverse effects and contraindications.
DentGen approach
DentGen aesthetic treatment is planned around individual facial movement rather than a fixed injection template.

Frequently asked
What are ultrathin veneers?
Ultrathin veneers are thin ceramic restorations designed to improve tooth shape, proportion and shade while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. Their suitability depends on the position, colour and condition of the natural teeth.
Are ultrathin veneers the same as no-prep veneers?
No. Ultrathin describes the thickness of the ceramic restoration, while no-prep describes whether the natural tooth is reduced before bonding. Some ultrathin veneer cases may still require limited preparation.
How thin can veneers be?
Veneer thickness varies according to the ceramic system, tooth position, required colour correction and bite. In selected areas modern ceramic restorations may be fabricated very thin, but the clinically appropriate thickness is determined case by case.
Do ultrathin veneers require shaving teeth?
Not always. Some favourable cases may need little or no preparation, while prominent, rotated, dark or irregular teeth may require controlled enamel adjustment to create space and avoid a bulky result.
Can ultrathin veneers look natural?
Yes, when shape, shade, translucency, surface texture and tooth proportions are planned correctly. Natural-looking results depend on both the ceramic design and the condition of the underlying tooth.
Are ultrathin veneers suitable for dark teeth?
Significant discolouration can be more difficult to mask with very thin ceramic because greater translucency may allow the underlying shade to show through. Material choice, thickness and preparation must therefore be planned individually.
Are ultrathin veneers strong?
Ceramic veneers can be durable when properly designed, bonded and protected from excessive forces. Their long-term performance depends on material selection, bite, bonding quality and habits such as grinding.
How do I know if I am suitable for ultrathin veneers?
A dentist should assess your tooth position, enamel, bite, gums, colour, existing restorations and aesthetic goals before deciding whether ultrathin, minimal-prep or another veneer approach is appropriate.
