Chin Botox is a treatment option that can be used to eliminate diseases in the jaw muscles that enable chewing and consuming food. Jaw muscles that can develop due to consuming hard foodstuffs can cause jaw joint diseases such as clenching teeth. These health problems negatively affect the person's life. One of the fast and painless ways to eliminate these problems is masseter botox application.
What is Jaw (Masseter) Botox?
Teeth clenching and teeth grinding, or bruxism with its medical name, are problems that can cause different health problems as well as disrupting the oral and dental health of the person. Chronic teeth grinding and clenching can cause facial and headaches, earaches and migraines. One of the treatment methods for this health problem, which can also cause tooth enamel loss, tooth sensitivity and tooth chipping, is botox. This procedure, which is applied with botulinum toxin bacteria, can reduce the pain of the person in a short time and eliminate the problems of teeth clenching and teeth grinding. This procedure is called jaw botox (masseter botox).
How is Jaw (Masseter) Botox Performed?
Jaw botox is performed with botulinum toxin injection. It is used for the treatment of teeth grinding and clenching problems caused by the jaw muscle working much more than it should. Botox injection is applied directly to the jaw muscle. With this injection into the muscle, the muscle is temporarily dysfunctionalized, that is, paralyzed. This application eliminates problems such as teeth grinding and clenching. In addition to eliminating these problems, the Botox procedure also softens facial contours and helps to make the expression of the person more aesthetic by correcting the jaw line. The effects of this treatment, which can be applied in a short time, appear within a few days. This treatment option, which stands out as an incisionless and non-surgical method, can be applied to anyone who does not have a problem that prevents botox in general health.
What Does Chin (Masseter) Botox Do?
Masseter Botox can be applied to prevent teeth clenching and teeth grinding problems seen in people with enlarged jaw muscle. Since the face shape of people with this problem may take a bony, square appearance in the long term, the botox procedure also helps to protect and improve the appearance of the person. It can eliminate problems in teeth and general oral health and help to eliminate discomforts such as migraine that the person experiences due to this problem.
