Botox for Clenching and Grinding
Clenching and grinding, known as bruxism, can be a frustrating and painful issue, but Botox is a very good and popular treatment. Tiny amounts of Botox are injected into overactive jaw muscles, helping them relax and easing the tension that often leads to discomfort and damage. When the muscles are less tight, the risk of tooth wear and jaw strain is highly reduced.
The results, which typically last 3 to 6 months, aren’t just practical, they’re also a huge relief for those fed up with the ceaseless discomfort. Botox is straightforward, performed right in the dental office and requires zero downtime.
