Why Do Dentists Make Great Aesthetic Practitioners?

As a dentist, you have the perfect clinical space to start introducing facial aesthetics. With your advanced knowledge of facial musculature, vasculature and nerve supply, dentists are immediately well suited to aesthetic procedures. Introducing facial aesthetics to your practice will also be an easy task as well as you already have the daily experience. From handling client information, hygiene protocols and existing knowledge of how to administer injections correctly. A dentist’s office is also already a perfectly suited clinical space.  

Benefits Of Botox and Dermal Filler Courses For Dentists

There are many reasons you personally want to make the career change. But here are the top reasons Facethetics have heard:

Income

It’s no secret the private sector pays well. If you are a dentist with aesthetic training your income can far exceed what it would be in with significantly less time investment. Working as an aesthetic dentist offers more opportunities for financial gain than working in the National Health Service. It’s possible to earn twice what you are currently, and it can be done on top of your current salary.

Quality of Life

Unlike NHS roles, the cosmetics industry has a much more sustainable work/life balance. Especially as the work hours tend to be much more sociable. The added flexibility of this career is unparalleled. You can choose when they would like to work, how often and for what length of time. Plus, there are no limits on the amount that an individual may earn during their lifetime as long as it doesn’t interfere with other important commitments such as family life.

Further Existing Skills

Dentists and Dental Hygienists are very well suited to aesthetic treatments as they are already very well versed in administering injections and how to follow all the appropriate hygiene protocols. Botox and Dermal Filler courses will expand your knowledge and skill set. With more and more dentists reporting that they find guiding patients through cosmetic procedures are great additions to their already vast clinical skills base, now is definitely the time for you to invest in these acquired knowledge sets.

Increased Business

Similarly to the previous point of expanding your skills, with your new skills you will have a much wider scope for career progression and opportunities Dentists often have a pre-existing client base that they can tap into when it comes time for them to open up their own practice in the aesthetics industry. Additionally, by offering botox and dermal fillers you will attract new patients who may then want dentistry procedures.
