BOTOX® Therapeutic
Long before BOTOX® Cosmetic injections were used to beautify the face, they were used for medical purposes. Spastic muscles or muscles that clench involuntarily can cause extreme discomfort and embarrassment. BOTOX® Therapeutic — delivered directly to problematic muscles via injections — can relieve facial tics, involuntary teeth clenching, and other medical problems. Patients typically get three to four months of relief after just one treatment.
TMJ specialist, Doctor Clifford Degel, offers BOTOX® Therapeutic injections at our practice serving Manhattan and all of New York City, to help patients overcome dental challenges related to muscle contraction. BOTOX® Therapeutic is helpful in treating TMJ disorder, ensuring the success of new dental restorations, and more.
Utility in Treating TMJ Disorder, Teeth Grinding, and Teeth Clenching
TMJ disorder, teeth grinding (bruxism), and teeth clenching can all cause extreme pain and disrupt daily life. Fortunately, all of these problems can be treated with BOTOX® Therapeutic, which relaxes the muscles that control the jaw (temporomandibular) joint. In the past, traditional treatments such as dental splints or night guards were used to treat these conditions. However, BOTOX® Therapeutic injections deliver targeted treatment to the source of the problem and allow you to enjoy your life free from pain.
Utility in Dental Implant Surgery
Because BOTOX® injections relax the muscles surrounding the jaw joint, targeted injections are useful in reducing the stress placed on new dental implants. Treatment with BOTOX® Therapeutic is an especially important part of the one-day implant process, in which the implant or implants are placed in just one appointment. Reducing the stress put on a new dental implant helps it become successfully integrated into your jaw bone, so you can count on many years of beautiful, worry-free smiles.
