Our practice believes in the holistic approach to oral health and aesthetics. Beyond exceptional endodontic care, we offer therapeutic botox.
Botox® is widely known for its cosmetic benefits, but its therapeutic applications go far beyond reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Therapeutic Botox is a powerful treatment option for various medical conditions, providing relief from chronic pain, muscle disorders, and even certain mental health challenges.
How Does Therapeutic Botox Work?
Botox works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles, reducing excessive contractions and tension. This makes it an effective treatment for conditions involving muscle overactivity, pain, and neurological disorders.
Conditions That May Benefit from Therapeutic Botox
Chronic Migraines – FDA-approved for the treatment of migraines, Botox helps reduce the frequency and severity of headaches by relaxing muscles and decreasing nerve sensitivity.
TMJ Disorders & Jaw Pain – By relaxing the muscles responsible for clenching and grinding, Botox can alleviate pain, tension, and discomfort associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction.
Bruxism (Teeth Grinding) – Reducing the force of involuntary grinding can prevent tooth damage and relieve jaw pain.
Facial Tics & Muscle Spasms – Botox can calm overactive muscles responsible for involuntary movements, including eye twitching and facial spasms.
