What is Botox®?

Botox, known for its cosmetic use in reducing wrinkles, has found a surprising ally in dentistry. Dental botox utilizes the same injectable medication but focuses on treating functional and cosmetic concerns related to facial muscles.


One key application is addressing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. TMJ can cause pain, headaches, and difficulty chewing. By injecting botox into targeted muscles, dentists can relax them, alleviating tension on the joint and reducing discomfort.


Dental botox also tackles teeth grinding and clenching, a condition known as bruxism. Bruxism can damage teeth and contribute to TMJ problems. Botox injections relax the muscles responsible for clenching, offering relief and potentially preventing further dental issues.


Beyond pain management, dental botox offers cosmetic benefits. It can reduce wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth and jawline. Additionally, botox can help with a "gummy" smile by relaxing the muscle that lifts the upper lip, revealing less gum tissue.



While minimally invasive, dental botox is not without considerations. It's important to consult a qualified dentist to discuss if it's right for you, understand potential side effects, and achieve the desired outcome.

How does Botox® Work?

Dr. Alisha Evangeline Prince will make small injections of Botox® in areas around your face, lips and mouth. This toxin goes to targeted muscle groups and blocks chemical neurotransmitters from being released and paralyzes these muscle groups. 


The effects of Botox typically last around 3-4 months, so we encourage you to schedule a regular treatment plan. Our team is here to assist you in creating a treatment plan that suits your needs.

How does Botox® benefit my appearance?

This minimally-invasive treatment is amazing for improving your appearance and also has medical benefits. As you age, you develop fine lines and wrinkles due to forming facial expressions over the years. Botox® helps relax those muscle groups that help you form those facial expressions, which helps smooth wrinkles that form around your eyes, cheeks and mouth.


From a medical standpoint, Botox® is a proven effective way to help relieve pain from temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) and help reduce symptoms from migraines and tension headaches you may be suffering from.
