Alleviate Jaw Pain
With Botox

TMJ treatment addresses temporomandibular joint disorder, a condition that triggers jaw pain and limited jaw mobility. We offer Botox and other neuromodulators, like Dysport and Xeomin, to relieve TMJ pain. These neurotoxin injections help relax the muscles around the jaw, thus reducing tension and alleviating discomfort. By targeting the root causes of TMJ, our approach improves jaw functionality and enhances overall quality of life.

Symptoms Treated:

  • Jaw pain
  • Facial discomfort
  • Clicking or popping sounds in the jaw
  • Limited jaw movement
  • Headaches or migraines
  • Ear pain or ringing
  • Muscle tension in the neck and shoulders

The Science

Neuromodulators, like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin, treat TMJ by interrupting the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. By blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, these injectables prevent excessive muscle activity around the jaw. This relaxation of muscles reduces tension, alleviates pain, and improves jaw function. As such, neuromodulators address the root causes of TMJ disorder, providing effective relief and enhancing overall comfort.

The Benefits:

  • Relaxes jaw muscles
  • Reduces pain and discomfort
  • Improves jaw mobility
  • Minimally invasive treatment
  • Quick procedure
  • Minimal side effects
  • No downtime

Your Experience

Treatment

During the procedure, you’ll be comfortably seated as our skilled professionals administer the chosen neuromodulator through a series of precise injections. These injections target specific points around your jaw and facial muscles, carefully relaxing the tension responsible for your TMJ symptoms. The treatment is quick and generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort. Most sessions conclude within 30 minutes.

Recovery

After receiving the neuromodulator injections for TMJ, you might experience minor bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection sites. These effects usually fade quickly and can be concealed with makeup if desired. Recovery time is minimal, allowing you to resume your routine immediately, but you should avoid strenuous workouts for a day or two. To maximize the benefits and minimize any risks, follow any aftercare guidelines provided by our experts.

Results

You’ll likely start noticing improvements within a few days of the neuromodulator treatment for TMJ. As the muscles relax over the next week or two, your jaw pain will gradually diminish, and your range of motion will improve. Results typically last around three to four months, but this can vary based on factors like individual response and the specific neuromodulator used. Our team will provide guidance on maintaining optimal results through follow-up treatments.
