Botox TMJ Treatment: A Proven Solution for Jaw Tension and Teeth Grinding
Are you struggling with jaw tightness, teeth grinding or discomfort when chewing or speaking? You could be dealing with TMJ disorder or bruxism, both of which are common yet painful conditions. Fortunately, there’s a highly effective non-surgical solution available now available in Nairobi – Botox TMJ treatment.
Understanding TMJ & Bruxism
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) dysfunction occurs when the jaw joint becomes tight or inflamed, leading to symptoms like jaw pain, facial tension, difficulty opening the mouth, and chronic headaches.
Bruxism, on the other hand, is the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, often during sleep. It not only wears down your teeth but also worsens TMJ tightness and causes persistent jaw pain.
These conditions are increasingly common in Kenya, especially among individuals with high stress levels or dental alignment issues. If the teeth are your problem, we will refer you to one of our trusted dental collegues, if the muscle is affected, we can help.
Why Botox is the Go-To Solution for Grinding Teeth
Botox for TMJ is an injection therapy that works by relaxing the overactive jaw muscles. When carefully added into the masseter and/or temporalis muscles, Botox for bruxism reduces muscle tension and stops the unconscious clenching or grinding of teeth.
This makes Botox for TMJ tightness a highly effective option for both short-term relief and long-term management of jaw-related conditions.
