BOTOX®  TREATMENT

Botox® is a neurotoxin that works by stopping nerve impulses from reaching the muscle, preventing contraction of the muscle and allowing them to relax. When injected directly into neuromuscular tissue, Botox® can be used as a treatment for TMJ, and it may help treat symptoms such as jaw tensions, headaches due to teeth grinding, and lockjaw in cases of severe stress.


Treatments are usually 10-30 minutes with at least 3 injection sessions over the course of several months. The purpose of this treatment is to reteach the muscles of the jaw to relax. Botox® can be injected into the forehead, temple, jaw muscles, and other areas depending on your symptoms, such as the trapezius in the shoulders and back.


BOTOX® FOR TMJ

TMJ disorders (TMD) can also cause a clicking sound or grating sensation when opening your mouth or chewing. If there is no pain or limitation of movement associated with jaw clicking, you probably don’t have TMJ disorder and TMD cause is unknown. Symptoms are believed to arise from problems with the muscles of your jaw or with the parts of the joint itself. Injury to your jaw, the joint, and the muscles of the head and neck, such as a heavy blow or whiplash can also lead to TMD. Other causes include grinding or clenching of teeth, movement of the soft cushion or disc between the ball and socket of the joint, arthritis in the joint, and stress. These could cause your teeth to clench or your facial and jaw muscles to tighten.

Common symptoms include:

  • pain or tenderness in the face, jaw joint area, neck, shoulders, and in or around the ear when your mouth moves (chewing, speaking, opening wide)
  • problems when opening your mouth; jaw gets stuck or locked in the open or closed position
  • clicking, popping or grating sounds in the jaw joint during movement that may or may not be painful
  • a tired feeling in the face, trouble chewing, or a sudden uncomfortable bite (upper and lower teeth are not fitting together properly)
  • swelling on the side of the face, toothaches, headaches, neck aches, dizziness, earaches, hearing problems, upper shoulder pain, and ringing in the ears.

Botox® for Migraines

Botox® is FDA approved to treat chronic migraine headaches in adults. In 2011 the FDA approved Botox® for a frontline treatment of TMD. Botox® is a purified protein that has been used in medicine since the mid-1970s. It can be used to help those who suffer from chronic migraines, which is defined as severe neurological disorder characterized by patients with a history of migraines who suffer from headaches on 15 or more days per month with headaches lasting 4 hours a day or longer.


Treatment typically involves 31 injections in 7 key areas of the head and neck. Injected into shallow muscles, a very small needle is used. Treatments are needed once every 12 weeks to prevent chronic migraines. This is a preventative treatment that needs to be maintained for continued benefit.
