About the course
In August 2009, VESTA and BK Training Institute ran a course that marked a milestone for Turkish dentistry. It took place at BK Training Institute in Reading, UK, and was the first botulinum toxin (Botox) course for Turkish dentists.
The training was led by Dr Bob Khanna, a well-known figure in aesthetic medicine.
What it covered
This was a beginner-level course in the use of botulinum toxin in dental and facial aesthetics. It combined theory with hands-on practice.
- Facial anatomy
- Patient assessment
- Injection techniques
- Treatment planning
Delegates practised under expert supervision, and left ready to add this new field to their clinical work.
Why it mattered
The participants became the first Turkish group to receive formal botulinum toxin training abroad. The course helped dental aesthetics to develop in Türkiye and opened the way for later training programmes. It also showed how growing interest in aesthetic treatment can be guided safely and ethically.
