Non-invasive treatment for teeth grinding
Are you tired of waking up with a sore jaw or experiencing chronic headaches? If so, you may be suffering from bruxism, a condition characterised by the grinding or clenching of teeth. Masseter Botox treatment involves injecting Botox into the masseter muscles, which are responsible for jaw movement. By relaxing these muscles, the treatment effectively reduces the intensity of teeth grinding and jaw clenching, providing relief from the discomfort and pain associated with bruxism.
