Abstract

Injectable gel is becoming increasingly popular for cosmetic reasons. The polyacrylamide gel (PAAG) is a permanent filler material used worldwide. In spite of the fact that the filler materials used today are considered quite safe, various complications have been reported in the literature. Hence PAAG use in the United States is not popular. As the area is very close to the dental field, a large complication potential is relatively considered following buccal dental injections. The aim of this article is to highlight a rare complication observed following a local anesthetic administration of a simple molar restoration in a healthy 33-year-old woman who had history of a filler augmentation in her cheek approximately 6 years ago.
