Dental Botox
$12 per unit
Dental Botox is a specialized use of Botox (botulinum toxin) in the field of dentistry to address various dental and facial concerns. While Botox is commonly known for its cosmetic use in reducing facial wrinkles, in dentistry, it has therapeutic applications as well.
How it works -- Botox works by blocking the signals between nerves and muscles, which temporarily paralyzes or weakens the targeted muscles. This effect typically lasts for about 3 to 6 months, after which the treatment can be repeated if necessary.
What to expect -- The procedure is usually quick and minimally invasive, with most patients experiencing little to no downtime. The effects of Botox typically become noticeable within a few days after treatment and can provide relief for several months.
Overall, dental Botox offers a non-surgical option to manage certain dental and facial conditions, improving both function and aesthetics.
Therapeutic dental applications of botox
1. TMJ Disorders
Botox can be injected into the muscles around the jaw to relieve pain and tension associated with TMJ disorders. By relaxing these muscles, Botox can reduce clenching and grinding, alleviating discomfort and preventing further damage to the teeth and jaw.
2. Teeth Grinding
For patients who grind their teeth, Botox can be used to weaken the masseter muscles (the muscles responsible for chewing), reducing the intensity of grinding and helping to prevent tooth wear and jaw pain.
3. Gummy smile
Botox can be used to treat a gummy smile by relaxing the muscles that elevate the upper lip. This results in less gum showing when the person smiles, creating a more balanced appearance.
Facial Pain and Migraines
Botox can treat chronic facial pain and migraines, particularly if these are related to muscle tension in the jaw or face.
Who can administer dental botox?
