What is Botox Therapy For?  

First, it helps to know what Botox therapy is often used for when it comes to its applications at a dentist’s office. It’s often used to provide people with a more youthful appearance by reducing the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet, and wrinkles on the forehead.  

At Smiles by Design, we offer Botox therapy to treat TMJ. This disorder is when your temporomandibular joints on either side of your mouth don’t operate smoothly. When Botox is injected into the muscles that make up your temporomandibular joints.  

By blocking the nerve joints and relaxing your muscles, Botox can relieve the symptoms of TMJ and give you the relief you need.  

How Do You Know If You Need Botox Therapy? 

If you feel your self-confidence is being affected by signs of aging on your face, Botox therapy can be a great option for you, especially because you can see results in as little as fifteen to twenty minutes, with the results lasting up to five months.  

You’ll also know if you’re struggling with TMJ if you’re experiencing these symptoms frequently:  

  • Locked jaw 
  • Chronic headaches 
  • Pressure in your ears 
  • Ringing in your ears, aka tinnitus 
  • Jaw muscle stiffness 
  • And more 

Botox therapy can relieve many of these symptoms so that you’re not experiencing pain and discomfort when going about your everyday life.
