Botox® Dallas
- Dallas Dentist Uses BOTOX® Therapeutically For TMJ & Headache Pain
-
The most exciting new addition to the dental arsenal against TMJ & headache pain is having BOTOX® injected into the painful muscles. One single session of BOTOX® injections is curative for 2/3 of the patients.
Don't waste money on TMJ splints or night guards that most patients stop wearing. Instead, you may get relief from TMJ clenching, grinding, and headache pain within a week with therapeutic BOTOX® injections from Dr. Melisa Christian at Dallas Laser Dentistry. Dr. Swift has been trained in the therapeutic and cosmetic use of BOTOX® for headache pain and other TMJ symptoms by Andy Blumenfeld, M.D. Dr. Blumenfeld is an internationally recognized authority on the utilization of BOTOX®. He is Director of The Headache Center of Southern California and is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
- Benefits of BOTOX® for Dallas Dental Patients
-
BOTOX® can reduce the number of clenching events and their intensity. This will lessen the destruction of your teeth, gums and jaw joint, and reduce the discomfort and pain in your face and chewing muscles. There is also smoothing of lines between the brows and in the forehead. Since the muscles are unable to contract, BOTOX® may actually prevent new wrinkles from forming.
- Cost of BOTOX® for Dallas Dental Patients:
-
Depending on the number of injections, BOTOX® treatment can cost anywhere from $500 to $1500.
- What is the long–term outcome?
-
Results of BOTOX® generally last up to four months. You should wait at least three months between treatments. It is likely that with repeated treatments, the injected muscles will atrophy allowing you to go longer and longer between sessions. In fact, Dr. Swift may be able to take care of all your Dallas BOTOX® needs.
