Teeth Grinding Treatment
relaxes the overactive jaw muscles responsible for grinding, clenching, and TMJ tension.
Teeth grinding and jaw clenching often happen without us knowing — during sleep, stressful moments, or as part of daily habits. Over time, this constant tension can cause headaches, jaw pain, tooth damage, and even a wider, more squared facial shape. Masseter Botox is a targeted, non-surgical treatment that relaxes the muscle responsible for grinding, offering relief from discomfort while also creating a softer, more balanced jawline. It’s a safe, proven solution for patients who want to protect their teeth, reduce pain, and restore comfort to their everyday life.
Relieve Pain, Protect Your Teeth, and Relax Your Jaw.
- Reduces grinding and clenching by calming the overactive masseter muscle.
- Relieves jaw pain, headaches, and TMJ tension.
- Prevents long-term tooth wear and dental damage.
- Can also slim the lower face for a softer jawline shape.
The masseter muscles — located on each side of your jaw — are responsible for chewing, clenching, and grinding. When these muscles become overactive, they can create significant tension, leading to pain, headaches, tooth wear, and even visible jaw enlargement. Masseter Botox works by relaxing these overworked muscles enough to reduce grinding and discomfort while maintaining normal chewing function. As the muscle relaxes, patients experience relief from jaw tightness, improved mouth opening, better sleep, and reduced strain on their teeth. Over time, the muscle can also shrink slightly from decreased activity, softly slimming the jawline. Results appear within days and continue improving over several weeks, with effects lasting 3–6 months.

Teeth Grinding Treatment (Masseter) Timeline
Click a milestone to explore your journey ✨
Day 1: Your treatment day
Your medical injector administers anti-wrinkle product into the masseter (jaw) muscles on both sides. The session takes around 10 to 15 minutes. You may feel mild tenderness in the jaw area. The muscles may feel slightly different when chewing for the first few days.
Week 2: Tension easing
The masseter muscles are beginning to relax. You may notice less tension, less clenching, and reduced grinding, particularly at night. The jawline may also begin to look slightly slimmer as the muscles start to reduce in size.
Week 6 to 8: Jaw slimming visible
The masseter muscles have significantly relaxed. Jaw slimming is becoming visible as the muscles decrease in bulk. Grinding and clenching are markedly reduced. Many patients report better sleep and less jaw pain.
4 to 6 Months: Results + maintenance
Results typically last 4 to 6 months. The jaw-slimming effect may last even longer with regular treatments as the muscles gradually become less bulky over time. Your clinic team will advise on the ideal treatment schedule for you.
