Detailed Medical Overview
Stress-induced teeth grinding and clenching (bruxism) causes hypertrophy of the masseter muscle, leading to TMJ joint pain, morning headaches, and tooth wear.
Injecting Botulinum Toxin temporarily relaxes hyperactive muscle fibers, reducing excessive bite forces while preserving normal chewing and speaking ability.
This non-surgical 10-minute treatment relieves TMJ discomfort and subtly slims a squared jawline into a refined V-line profile.
