Teeth Grinding

Teeth grinding treatment involves the use of Botox to relax the masseter muscles, the large muscles responsible for clenching and grinding your teeth.

Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a common condition that can cause jaw pain, headaches, and worn-down teeth. Often linked to stress, anxiety, or misalignment, bruxism can lead to discomfort and long-term dental issues. Botox is an effective, non-invasive solution that relaxes the jaw muscles, alleviating tension and helping to reduce grinding and clenching, providing relief and restoring comfort to the jaw.

What is Teeth Grinding?

Teeth grinding treatment involves the use of Botox to relax the masseter muscles, the large muscles responsible for clenching and grinding your teeth. By injecting Botox into these muscles, we can reduce the intensity of the grinding, providing relief from associated symptoms like jaw pain, headaches, and teeth wear. The treatment is non-surgical and provides effective results without the need for long-term medication.
