Teeth Grinding/Clenching
Did you know we can actually assist you to stop grinding or clenching you teeth?
Masseter injections reduce the strength of your bite muscle, so you can stop worrying about tooth wear, jaw ache and headaches, which can also have the added bonus of a jaw slimming effect.
Bruxism is a condition in which a person involuntarily grinds or clenches their teeth, often during sleep. It can also occur during waking hours, and may be caused by a variety of factors such as stress, anxiety, or a misaligned bite. Over time, bruxism can lead to tooth damage, headaches, and jaw pain.
Anti-wrinkle injections reduce the strength of one of the muscles that assists your bite (known as the masseter muscle). This reduces the ability to grind the teeth at night which can reduce the symptoms of tooth wear, jaw ache and headaches all which you can suffer when grinding your teeth. Saving you visits to the dentist and having to wear uncomfortable mouth gear.
As an added bonus to this treatment some people will also get a jaw slimming effect due to reducing the size of the muscle.
