“Smile without squeezing, free your jaw with Botox Massetero.”
Bruxism (BRX) is defined as a disorder characterized by the alteration of normal oral movements, accompanied by other non-functional ones that involve clenching and/or grinding the teeth and contractures of one or more muscle groups that participate in chewing. Therefore, to treat bruxism it is essential to reduce the action and strength of involuntary movements, but without limiting those that are voluntary (chewing, swallowing, phonation). Botox, for its part, is a botulinum toxin that blocks the transmission of stimuli from neurons to muscles. As a result, the muscles do not receive the message from the brain, which causes a decrease in contractions of the muscles on which it is applied. For this reason, Botox has proven to be very effective in reducing the force used during episodes of bruxism. And, at the same time, it allows the patient to chew and lead a normal life. Therefore, it is a safe, painless and very non-invasive therapy, which improves the quality of life of people with bruxism. The price includes 100 Units of Botox, but may vary if more or less is required.

Masseter Botox - Treatment for Bruxism

Bruxism treatment with Botox is an innovative and effective approach that seeks to relieve the symptoms associated with teeth grinding by applying botulinum toxin to the chewing muscles. This procedure, carried out by specialized medical professionals, offers a number of benefits and advantages for those looking for a non-invasive and personalized solution.

Procedure Steps:

  1. Initial Consultation: The process begins with an initial consultation, during which the doctor evaluates the patient's medical history, symptoms, and performs a detailed examination of the facial and jaw muscles. This phase is crucial in determining the patient's suitability for Botox treatment.

  2. Personalized Planning: Based on the initial evaluation, a personalized treatment plan is created. This involves identifying strategic injection points to deliver botulinum toxin accurately and effectively.

  3. Injection Procedure: During the treatment session, small amounts of Botox are administered to the specific chewing muscles. The injections are virtually painless and are completed in a relatively short time. This approach minimizes excessive muscle activity associated with bruxism.

  4. Gradual Results: As the Botox is absorbed, the chewing muscles experience controlled relaxation. The results are gradual and are manifested in the reduction of teeth grinding and the decrease in related symptoms, such as jaw pain and headaches.

Benefits and Advantages of Botox Treatment for Bruxism:

  1. Non-invasive: Unlike some invasive procedures, Botox treatment is non-surgical and does not require significant recovery time.

  2. Proven Effectiveness: Numerous clinical studies support the effectiveness of Botox in reducing muscle activity associated with bruxism, providing symptomatic relief.

  3. Personalization of Treatment: Each patient receives a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs, ensuring optimal results and a personalized experience.

  4. Symptom Reduction: The treatment not only addresses teeth grinding, but also contributes to the reduction of jaw pain and associated discomfort.

  5. Improvement in Quality of Life: By reducing the symptoms of bruxism, Botox treatment not only improves oral health, but also contributes to the patient's overall well-being and quality of life.

This innovative approach offers a safe and effective solution for those seeking to manage bruxism holistically, providing long-lasting relief and improving jaw functionality and comfort.
