HOW BOTOX ENHANCES DENTAL CARE
Botox in Dentistry: More Than Just Aesthetics
At West Plano Dental, we use Botox to relieve jaw pain, improve comfort, and help you smile with confidence.
How Patients Benefit from Dental Botox
Botox (botulinum toxin) is commonly known for reducing wrinkles, but in dentistry, it's also a powerful tool to treat facial pain, TMJ issues, clenching, and even improve smile aesthetics. As experts in facial structure and muscle function, dentists are uniquely qualified to offer Botox safely and effectively.
What Is Botox and Why Do Dentists Use It?
TMJ & Jaw Pain Relief - Botox relaxes overactive jaw muscles that cause tightness, pain, or popping. This is especially effective for TMJ disorders.
Clenching & Grinding (Bruxism) Treatment - Botox minimizes nighttime teeth grinding by weakening the overworked masseter muscle — often reducing headaches and wear on teeth.
Migraine & Headache Relief - By targeting trigger points, Botox helps reduce tension-related migraines stemming from jaw strain.
Gummy Smile Correction - Botox gently lowers the upper lip to balance your smile for a more aesthetic, confident look.
