Treatment summary:
This procedure is dedicated for those, who have strong jaw muscles. If you clench your teeth instinctively or when your’re stressed – it’s the procedure for you.
The treatment takes only a few minutes. During your visit, I check out your jaw muscles' activity and decide on the Botox volume to be applied. Then I inject it directly into the muscles to get it slightly weakened. As the result the muscles won’t flex as much, which would reduce these inconvenient symptoms. The procedure itself is not painful at all.
After the procedure:
You’ll notice first effects after 3 days and full effects after 14 days. As a result you may expect less teeth clenching and better comfort of living :) . Botox won’t bring any unnatural feelings – you could eat and chew in the same way as before. After the procedure we meet again at my place for a free of charge check-up to evaluate the results. If there’s a need then to apply extra Botox for the problem, it’s also free of charge.
