Botox for gnashing teeth

Teeth grinding without being aware of it while asleep or awake is a serious disorder that can disrupt the structure of the teeth. This discomfort can be easily eliminated with the application of clenching botox, also called chin botox. The application is made to the chewing muscle in the jaw.
Teeth grinding botox is applied in 5-10 minutes without causing a feeling of pain. The purpose of the application is to weaken the masseter muscle, known as the chewing muscle. After the botox procedure applied within certain sessions, the damage to the tooth structure and jawbone problems are prevented.
