Book OnlineHow Injectables Help With TMJ Pain
Injectables are administered into the facial muscles affected by soreness and tension, such as the masseter muscles that control chewing. By relaxing these muscles, injectables can reduce:
- Jaw pain and tension related to TMJ disorders
- Headaches caused by grinding and clenching, especially during stressful times
- Lockjaw and limited jaw movement
- Wear and damage to teeth from excessive clenching forces
Many patients notice improvement within one or two days, with the full effect developing within about a week. Treatment is performed right here in our office and takes only a short appointment.
Advanced Training in TMJ and Migraine Treatment
Dr. Chaudhry has advanced training in facial injectables and TMJ and migraine treatment. Her dental background gives her a detailed understanding of facial anatomy and the muscles involved in chewing and clenching. We are constantly learning so we can offer the latest advances in dental medicine to help end your suffering.
A Comprehensive Approach to Jaw Pain
Injectables are often most effective as part of a complete treatment plan. We use Joint Vibration Analysis and T-Scan computerized bite analysis to evaluate your jaw joints and bite, then recommend treatments that may include custom night guards, bite adjustment, and restorative care with crowns for worn teeth. If grinding is linked to sleep-disordered breathing, we may also evaluate you for sleep apnea. Learn more about our diagnostic technology.
Cosmetic Facial Injectables
In addition to therapeutic treatment, we offer cosmetic injectables and dermal fillers to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, forehead lines, and laugh lines and subtly enhance facial contours. Pair injectables with cosmetic dentistry or our MedSpa services, such as skin rejuvenation and skin tightening, for a complete refresh. Ask about our facial cosmetics consultation special.
