Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Alex Rivkin shows Dr. Ordon and Dr. Stork how he injects Botox into the masseter muscles of Suzannes jaw to treat her TMJ, an inflammation of the temporal-mandibular joint in the jaw.
Currently most states do not allow dentists to inject Botox for the purposes of TMJ pain. Please consult with your local board of dentistry to find out if that is available in your area.

The most common benefit of Botox is the reduction in the number of clenching events and their intensity. This will reduce the destruction of your teeth, gums and jaw joint, and reduce the discomfort and pain in your face and chewing muscles.Dentist India
