Eliminate TMJ Pain With Botox in Houston

Experience lasting relief from jaw pain, headaches, and facial tension with Botox in Houston. Our dental team precisely targets the overactive muscles causing your TMJ disorder, helping them relax without affecting normal jaw function. This quick, minimally invasive procedure takes just minutes in our office. Results can last three to four months and typically improve with regular treatments.

Botox therapy relieves jaw pain by targeting overactive muscles that cause clenching and grinding. This treatment reduces TMJ discomfort, decreases tension headaches and migraines, and improves jaw mobility for easier eating and speaking. It also protects your teeth from excessive wear caused by grinding.

Frequently Asked Questions About Botox

Is Botox safe for TMJ disorder?
Yes, Botox for TMJ disorder is generally safe when administered by a trained dental professional. It's been used for TMJ for many years with minimal side effects. The injections target specific muscles without affecting your ability to chew, speak, or make facial expressions normally. Most patients experience no complications beyond mild temporary soreness.
How long do the effects of Botox treatment last?
Botox treatments for TMJ typically last three to four months initially. Many patients find that with regular treatments, the effects may last longer over time as muscles become conditioned to relax. Your specific results depend on the severity of your condition and how your body responds to treatment.
How soon will I feel relief after Botox treatment?
Most patients begin to notice muscle relaxation within 24-48 hours after treatment, with maximum relief occurring around seven to 10 days post-injection. The reduction in muscle tension gradually alleviates pain, headaches, and other TMJ symptoms. Some patients report immediate psychological relief just knowing treatment has begun.

Look no further, Dr. Lee is the best. I have been seeing him for 20+ years and even after we moved an hour away to the suburbs, I still drive in to see him every time because I wouldn't trust my dental care with anyone else. He is thorough, honest and fair and has always listened to my concerns... Look no further, Dr. Lee is the best.

He is thorough, honest and fair and has always listened to my concerns and guided me in the right direction. He's done my crowns, cavities, whitening and orthodontics (Invisalign). Best dentist in Houston.

Just left from a dental appointment at Smile More. I needed three (3) permanent crowns and Dr. Borwen Lee was gentle and accurate in placing them, especially since I had opted out of taking a numbing shot. Once again, another successful visit!
