However, the consequences are very bad for your teeth. Wear and tear can occur on teeth and molars. Sometimes the muscle tension in the jaw is so increased that your jaws become overactive. Teeth grinding can occur continuously due to this increased muscle tension, but it can also only occur during stressful periods. Few people know that Botox (Botulinum Toxin) is the solution for teeth grinding, also known as bruxism.
What is Botox for teeth grinding?
Botulinum toxin is a naturally derived protein used to temporarily relax muscles. The Body Clinic uses the Azzalure brand. This is applied via injections. Botulinum toxin blocks the nerve impulses to the muscles, reducing or stopping muscle activity. Therefore, teeth grinding can be effectively treated with Botox. Teeth grinding can also cause head and neck pain. All of this combined can lead to fatigue. There can be various causes for teeth grinding, such as stress, smoking, sleep disorders, or alcohol consumption.

You can literally come during your lunch break. After photos have been taken and you have completed a health declaration and treatment agreement, the treatment can begin immediately. 6-8 injections are given into the jaw muscles to reduce tension. After the treatment, you can lightly ‘press’ the area. Cooling is not necessary.
