Several years ago I was talking with patients who told me that they got fewer headaches after getting Botox for cosmetic reasons on their forehead and around their eyes. Then I started to look at their teeth and many showed signs of bruxism or grinding. After more research and training I found that Botox is an excellent adjunctive treatment protocol in treating bruxism.
Try this experiment, clench your teeth real hard and look in the mirror. Many of you will see anxiety and muscle tension on your face like the woman shown below. By treating these patients with Botox, I have found that nearly 90% of the patients obtained noticable decrease in grinding, sore jaw muscles, TMJ/TMD pain and headaches.
Very few dentists are trained in the use of Botox for TMJ pain and headache relief. In fact, according to Allergan, the manufacturer of Botox, Dr. Cast is one of the leading dental providers of Botox in the State of California. To see if Botox is a viable treatment option for you, call our office today at (951) 698-1700 and choose an experienced dentist in the use of Botox for TMJ and headache treatment.
