At Tarpon River Dental, we offer Therapeutic Botox® as an innovative solution for patients experiencing jaw pain, TMJ disorders, chronic headaches, and teeth grinding (bruxism). While Botox is commonly known for its cosmetic benefits, it also serves as an effective treatment for relaxing overactive muscles and alleviating discomfort related to dental and facial conditions.
By carefully administering Botox to targeted facial muscles, we can reduce tension, ease muscle contractions, and prevent the strain that leads to pain.
Reduces tension in the jaw muscles, easing jaw pain, stiffness, and discomfort.
Minimizes involuntary clenching and grinding, which can lead to tooth wear, fractures, and headaches.
Helps relieve headaches caused by muscle tension and overactivity.
Can be used to relax involuntary muscle contractions, improving comfort and function.
Botox injections take only a few minutes and require no downtime.
Results typically start to appear within 3-7 days, with peak effectiveness around 2 weeks.
The effects generally last 3-4 months, providing extended relief from symptoms.
If you experience chronic jaw pain, frequent headaches, or excessive teeth grinding, Botox may be a great solution to improve your comfort and oral health.
