Botox®
Teeth grinding (bruxism) with Botox®
Easing jaw clenching to protect teeth and comfort at Best of You Aesthetics in Bonn
What is bruxism?
Grinding or clenching often happens during sleep or stress. It can wear teeth and strain the jaw. Botox® can reduce how forcefully the masseter contracts.
How it works
Injections relax the chewing muscles enough to lower grinding force while preserving function. You should still chew normally on a comfortable diet during early days if we advise texture changes.
