Bruxism Treatment
Bruxism (also known as teeth grinding) is a condition that affects around 8-10% of people.
This is usually identified as grinding of the teeth or jaw clenching which can lead to painful headaches, jaw pain and tooth wear.
This condition can affect people both when they are awake and asleep.
Bruxism can be treated with toxin injections into the masseter muscle which is responsible for chewing in order to relax the muscle, decrease the pain level for the patient, relax the jaw and increase a patients quality of life.
