This treatment involves the injection of botulinum toxin-A (brand name Botox) into the masseter muscles to help reduce tooth grinding and clenching. The masseter muscles are our main chewing muscles in the jaw and can become enlarged due to overuse, especially during periods of stress. Not only does this action cause headaches and jaw aches, but it also causes the muscle to increase in size, which can give a more square appearance to the face.
To help slim the face and take away some of the discomfort caused by teeth grinding anti-wrinkle injections into the masseter muscles can help disengage this muscle partly to help weaken its over activity.
