Kelowna – Cerulean Medical Institute has reported a 45% increase in patients seeking Botox® for the treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ) and bruxism within the past year. With jaw pain, teeth grinding, and facial tension becoming increasingly common, more individuals are turning to this innovative therapy for lasting relief.
According to the American Academy of Facial Esthetics (AAFE), nearly 10 million people across North America suffer from TMJ, while one in three adults clench or grind their teeth, often while sleeping. Experts suggest this surge is connected to heightened stress levels and disrupted sleep patterns that have become more prevalent since the pandemic.
While Botox is widely known for its cosmetic benefits, it is now being recognized as an effective therapeutic solution for jaw disorders. Targeted Botox masseter treatments relax the overactive jaw muscles that contribute to pain, tension, and tooth damage caused by chronic grinding. Patients report relief from jaw pain, facial tightness, frequent headaches, and even cosmetic improvements such as a softer, more contoured jawline.
Many patients notice improvement within just a few days, with optimal results typically achieved after two weeks. Consistent treatments every three to four months not only sustain the results but may also help retrain the muscles, offering extended relief over time. Unlike traditional options such as night guards or prescription medications, Botox provides a non-surgical, quick, and highly effective alternative with no downtime.
Cerulean Medical Institute takes pride in offering this safe and proven treatment, delivered by an experienced team of medical professionals who tailor every session to the individual needs of the patient. Each treatment is designed with both comfort and outcome in mind, ensuring patients receive the highest level of care.
