Teeth Clenching Botox Treatment
Intense stress causes us to unconsciously clench and grind our teeth. Over time, our overused chewing muscle develops, strengthens, and expands. This results in a widening and squared-off appearance of our face. Botox injections into the chewing muscle weaken and shrink the muscle, resulting in a thinner, more triangular appearance of the face.
Botox injections for the masticatory muscles not only improve our facial shape but also prevent damage caused by pressure on our teeth and deformation of our jaw joint. After a 1-2-minute injection, which requires no anesthesia, the changes become clearly visible after one month. Repeating the treatment every six months is sufficient.
ISTANBUL BOTOX FOR TEETH CLEANING AND GRINDING (BRUXISM) TREATMENT
The treatment is performed by Botox injection into the chewing muscle, which weakens and shrinks the muscle, making the face thinner and more triangular. With Botox injection into the muscle, we not only correct our facial shape but also prevent damage caused by pressure on our teeth and deformation in our jaw joint.
HOW DOES TEETH CLEANING OR GRINKING (BRUXISM) OCCUR?
Intense stress causes us to unconsciously clench and grind our teeth. Over time, our overused chewing muscles develop, strengthen, and expand. This results in a widening and square-shaped face. The muscle that clenches the jaw at night, causing the teeth to press tightly together, is the mandibular chewing muscle (the masseter muscle). In more severe cases, the temporal muscles (the temporal muscles) also become involved.
