Relieve Jaw Pain and Tension with Therapeutic Botox Treatment
TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders can cause chronic jaw pain, headaches, clicking or locking of the jaw, and even difficulty chewing. At Southeast Denver Dental, we offer Botox therapy for TMJ as a non-invasive, highly effective solution for reducing muscle tension and alleviating pain.
This treatment is ideal for patients in Southeast Denver, Cherry Creek, and nearby areas who are looking for TMJ relief near me without surgery or long-term medication. Dr. Malgorzata Korosciel customizes each treatment plan to help you regain comfort and function.
How Botox Helps TMJ Disorders
Botox works by temporarily relaxing the overactive muscles responsible for jaw clenching, teeth grinding, and TMJ-related tension. When injected into targeted facial and jaw muscles, Botox reduces:
- Pain from jaw overuse and inflammation
- Muscle tension in the temples, cheeks, and jawline
- Headaches caused by bruxism (teeth grinding)
- Nighttime clenching and associated facial soreness
Treatment typically takes just a few minutes and requires no downtime. Many patients experience relief within a few days, with results lasting up to 3–4 months.
We may also recommend complementary treatments like occlusal adjustments or mouthguards to improve long-term results and reduce wear on your teeth.
Is Botox Right for You?
Botox for TMJ may be the right solution if you experience:
- Chronic jaw pain or facial tension
- Clicking or locking of the jaw joint
- Headaches, especially upon waking
- Limited ability to open or close your mouth
