BOTOX® Therapy
Our office provides therapeutic botox to treat symptoms of TMJ/TMD and myofacial pain including tension headaches, clenching, and grinding teeth.
Botox® is FDA-approved to treat chronic migraines in adults age 18 or over. When injected, it enters pain fibers that are involved in headaches and other myofacial tension, blocking the release of chemicals, and thus preventing the activation of pain networks in the brain. Botox® for migraines is most effective if you get headaches on 15 or more days a month. BOTOX® is used for a number of additional medical conditions, including the treatment of TMJ pain. Ask your doctor for more details to find out if treatment with BOTOX® may be right for you.
