TMJ/TMD
Botox for TMJ/TMD disorders
Many patients grind their teeth and this also can cause increase in the size of the masseter muscle as well as pain, tenderness and TMJ problems. Dr. Niamtu uses BOTOX® Cosmetic to assist in the treatment of migraine headaches, TMJ/TMD disorders, tooth grinding/clenching, and facial pain. This video shows Dr. Niamtu injecting the temporalis muscles for a patient with facial pain from clenching and TMJ/TMD.
