What Is Therapeutic Botox?
Botox is known for the benefits it can provide to your overall appearance and confidence. At Molina Dentistry, we use Botox as a therapeutic tool administered for dental purposes.
Incorporating Botox in dental procedures at Molina Dentistry not only addresses cosmetic concerns but also contributes to patient comfort and improved functional outcomes. It is a valuable solution for various dental issues.
Tackling Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMD)
TMJ Disorder affects the temporomandibular joint that connects the jawbone to the skull. Many factors can bring about TMJ Disorder such as teeth grinding (bruxism), stress, and misalignment. When you have TMJ disorder, everyday activities such as chewing, yawning, and talking can be affected. It can lead to pain, discomfort, and limited jaw movement.
TMJ Disorder affects your quality of life and can cause pain from even the simplest movements.
How Therapeutic Botox Helps
Luckily, you do not have to suffer the effects of TMJ Disorder. Dental Botox can help manage these symptoms and provide you relief. The process works by injecting Botox into specific facial muscles that will relax your jaw to reduce tension and pain. For patients with chronic migraines and TMD pain, this can be life-changing.
You can get back to living life without pain or surgery, thanks to therapeutic Botox.
Therapeutic Botox for Gummy Smiles
The Challenge of Gummy Smiles
Gummy smiles show an excessive amount of gum tissue when smiling, sometimes affecting one’s confidence. Dental Botox provides a viable, quick, and comfortable solution to this issue, giving you back confidence in your smile.
How Therapeutic Botox Works for Gummy Smiles
By injecting Botox into the upper lip muscles, it relaxes them, reducing the extent to which the upper lip rises and limiting the appearance of a gummy smile. Dental Botox has revolutionized gummy smiles so you do not have to receive extensive care or surgery for the same results.
