Masseter Muscle Treatment

Clenching or grinding your teeth is a condition that develops unconsciously, especially during sleep, and can eventually lead to problems such as jaw pain, headaches, tooth sensitivity, tooth wear, and widening of the jawline. One of the most commonly used methods for treating bruxism is Neurotoxin injections into the masseter muscle.

​

Neurotoxin temporarily reduces the activity of the chewing muscles on either side of the jaw, causing them to relax. This relieves pain caused by clenching the jaw, reduces tension in the jawline, and relieves pressure on the teeth. The procedure is completed within minutes, and the patient can return to their normal routine the same day.

​

The effects of Neurotoxin typically develop within 5–7 days, with results lasting 4–6 months. Repeat treatments are safe if necessary. This treatment can also create a more refined appearance to facial features by slimming the jawline.
