How Can Botox Help?
Botox can be offered as an alternative treatment for TMJ pain because by injecting it into the affected areas, it acts as a muscle relaxer, allowing your muscles to be immobilized and giving you much-needed relief.
Do you wake up with sore, stiff muscles around your jaws?
Are you aware of grinding or clenching of your teeth?
Do you have frequent headaches or neck aches?
If yes, you may be suffering from TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders or TMD. The good news is that the FDA has approved a new method of treatment from an old friend used in getting rid of wrinkles—Botox.
