Salamanca Dental offers muscle relaxant injection treatments to our patients.
What forms of muscle relaxant treatments do we offer?
At Salamanca Dental we administer muscle relaxant injections, which act to soften muscles in head and neck region. This treatment helps to reduce overuse of facial muscles, facial tension, muscle hyper-tone and headaches as related to teeth clenching, grinding and jaw joint/TMJ problems. Effects of treatment become noticeable after 14 days.
Muscle relaxant treatments are useful adjuncts to TMJ dysfunction and other jaw clenching and teeth grinding treatments provided by dentists.
We treat our patients from a comprehensive standpoint which may include injecting muscle relaxant into muscles of the head and neck region to reduce behavioural jaw clenching and teeth grinding habits. Effects may last 3 to 4 months before re treatment is necessary.
