Just had your Botox treatment for jaw clenching or teeth grinding (bruxism)? In this video, Dr. Farmah from The Bruxism Clinic explains what to expect after treatment, how Botox works in the masseter muscle, and the key aftercare steps that ensure the best results.
Whether this is your first treatment or you’ve just had a top-up, this video will guide you through what’s happening beneath the surface and how to take care of your jaw post-injection.
🧠 What You’ll Learn:
✔️ How Botox works to reduce jaw clenching and grinding
✔️ What sensations to expect over the first few days
✔️ The importance of not massaging the treated area
✔️ When the results start to kick in (and what to do if they don’t)
✔️ Why follow-up at 4 weeks matters for precision and balance
🦷 Why This Treatment Helps:
Jaw clenching and teeth grinding are often driven by overactivity of the masseter muscle—especially during sleep. Botox gently relaxes this muscle, relieving tension without affecting how you eat or smile.
By reducing this constant muscle overuse, we help:
Relieve pressure headaches
Reduce jaw pain and tension
Prevent further enamel wear or cracked teeth
Slim a bulky jawline in some cases
