Facial rejuvenation topic for Sept. 20 Regional Meeting 

The next Regional Meeting will be held on Friday, Sept. 20, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Hyatt Regency Schaumburg.

Join us as we hear from three expert speakers on "Cosmetic Rejuvenation and Functional Restoration of the Face." The meeting is free to doctors and their staff. 

The purpose of this course is to describe the mechanisms of action and address knowledge gaps in facial rejuvenation and related functional interventions for the practicing dentist. Our speakers will delve into topics such as uses for botulinum toxins, peels, energy devices to address benign lesions and surface irregularities, volume restoration, and surgical options as well as treatment of chronic bruxism and facial synkinesis.
