What Is Botox®?
Botox® is one of several different types of neuromodulators on the market. When you hear the word Botox®, you may associate it with the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles. However, it can also be used for medical conditions, such as the treatment of TMJ/TMD.
How Can My Dentist Use Botox®?
Your dentist can use Botox® to help alleviate pain from TMJ disorders, as well as to reduce wrinkles on the face and around the mouth. Botox® is a type of medication that relaxes the muscles in your face and jaw, which can help relieve tension and reduce pain associated with TMJ. Additionally, it can be used for cosmetic purposes, such as reducing wrinkles around the eyes and lips or even helping lift drooping brows.
Why Should I Visit My Dentist for Botox® Injections?
Our team is happy to provide Botox® injections alongside other routine appointments, such as dental cleanings and examinations, eliminating the need to make a separate visit to a dermatologist or other medical spa professional. Additionally, our dentists have the skill to provide injections precisely, thanks to the regular use of injectable anesthetics in the field of dentistry.
