Masseter Botox for TMJ in Northern Virginia: Fast Relief for Jaw Pain

Persistent tension in the jaw can be severely painful. The providers at Costa Dentistry treat TMJ, teeth grinding, and facial headaches with dental techniques and masseter Botox at our practice in Ashburn, VA. 

How does Botox work against jaw pain? Our dentists insert Botox into the masseter muscle in your jaw to reduce movement of your facial muscles. This freezing prevents the muscle from clenching, forcing it to relax and ultimately improving oral function.
