Botox
Did you know Botox does much more than eliminate wrinkles?
Botox is great for facial aesthetics and it can also help with your dental problems! Look over the list below and learn how Botox can benefit you:
Treat your TMJ and relieve your jaw pain.
TMJ (temporo-mandibular joint) disorders cause jaw tension, soreness, and discomfort. Botox relieves jaw tension by making muscles unable to engage in the powerful, often unconscious movement of the jaw that produces headaches and pain.
Reduce or eliminate your pain associated with clenching and grinding teeth.
Botox treatments often eliminate headaches resulting from teeth grinding, and in cases of severe stress, Botox can even minimize lock jaw.
