An end to teeth grinding and jaw clenching

Botox® treatment for teeth grinding

For a pain-free life and a relaxed jaw

Do you wake up in the morning with headaches and jaw pain or tension in the neck and throat area? We grind our teeth unconsciously at night while we sleep. But stress-related teeth clenching can also occur during the day. This is caused by overactivity of the chewing muscles.

The enormous force exerted wears down the chewing surfaces of the teeth and damages the temporomandibular joints. Over time, the chewing muscles increase in mass due to the unwanted "training", so that the face can even appear fuller and the facial proportions appear inharmonious. With botulinum preparations (Botox®), this excessive muscle strength can be reduced. The Botox^® is specifically introduced into the masticatory muscles, taking the facial anatomy into account. Within 2-3 weeks, the chewing apparatus relaxes to such an extent that the grinding and the associated pain subside. Your normal chewing function when eating remains unaffected.
