Can Botox Relieve Jaw Pain From TMJ?

In this video, Mary Ellis, RN, discusses how Botox can be used to treat TMJ by relaxing overworked jaw muscles and reducing pain and tension.

I also offer Botox treatment for TMJ. This helps relax the jaw muscles that cause clenching and grinding. By easing that tension, Botox can help reduce jaw pain, headaches, and the discomfort associated with constantly clenching or grinding teeth. For the best results, treatment is usually repeated every 3–6 months, and over time, your jaw can learn to stay more relaxed.

If you or someone you love is suffering from jaw pain and wants to know how our Botox treatments can help, contact Dr. Robert Ellis in Rigby, ID, for a free consultation to learn how our life-changing treatments can enhance your smile, relieve pain, and improve your function.
