How Do Botox Injections Work?
While you may not think of your dentist as the best place to receive Botox or Dysport, Dr. Mulhall has received additional training through the Pacific Training Institute for Facial Esthetics & Therapeutics and the University of Alberta, and has a strong interest in using these treatments for a variety of conditions. She is experienced in administering Botox and Dysport to improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as provide relief from headaches, TMD, and neck, shoulder, and facial pain.
Botox and Dysport contain a purified protein that helps relax targeted muscles, creating a smoother appearance while also supporting pain relief. These treatments can also complement dental care in Downtown Calgary, particularly when managing clenching or TMJ-related concerns.
Botox or Dysport is administered through a few small injections — a quick, simple, and minimally invasive procedure with no downtime. Contact Dr. Tracey Downtown Dental if you have any questions about Botox and Dysport injections.
Am I a Candidate for Botox Injections?
While Botox and Dysport are often used for cosmetic purposes, research shows they can also help relieve pain associated with bruxism and headaches. In addition, these treatments may improve the symmetry and overall comfort of your smile. One of the most common complementary treatments for jaw tension is night guard therapy for bruxism in Calgary, which can be used alongside injections to reduce wear and tear on the teeth.
Regardless of your reason for treatment, Dr. Mulhall can help determine if Botox or Dysport is right for you by reviewing your medical history and assessing your specific condition. You should be in good general health before beginning the injection process. If you’re interested in Botox or Dysport in downtown Calgary, Dr. Mulhall can help. Talk to us about the following conditions:
Temporomandibular Joint Disorder affects the proper and comfortable function of the jaw joints. TMD often triggers destructive and painful teeth clenching and grinding as well as jaw stiffness and facial pain. Botox and Dysport injections effectively target muscle tension and provide relief from the symptoms.
Bruxism, or teeth grinding, can result in jaw pain, headaches, and chipped or cracked teeth. While mouth guards are the most effective form of treatment for Bruxism, Botox and Dysport injections can help to relieve pain and relax the muscle to prevent severe clenching and grinding.
Crow’s feet and wrinkles can form around the eyes, mouth and forehead following the consistent muscle contractions associated with smiling, laughing, chewing, and speaking. The most well-known cause of Botox and Dysport injections is to reduce the look of lines and wrinkles by relaxing these muscles.
Facial asymmetry may be a result of genetics, physical trauma, surgery, nerve injury, or muscle hypertrophy. Dr. Mulhall can inject Botox or Dysport treatments into select muscles in order to restore balance to your symmetrical smile.
If you experience neck, shoulder or facial pain, Dr. Mulhall can help make a real difference in the quality of your daily life with pain relief using Botox or Dysport. Muscle imbalances can often lead to stiff neck and shoulders, severe headaches or a stiff and tender jaw joint.
