Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD or TMJ), are notoriously difficult to diagnose and treat.  Many of the related symptoms, such as headaches and earaches, often lead doctors to diagnose a sinus condition, as opposed to a problem with the jaw joint.  TMJ symptoms often change in severity, depending on how much stress the sufferer is experiencing.  During an intensely stressful period, grinding teeth, debilitating earaches, and lockjaw may occur.  Botox® injections are sometimes an effective and painless way to alleviate tension in the temporomandibular joint, reducing jaw pain, headaches, and suffering.

HERE ARE SEVERAL OF THE MAJOR BENEFITS BOTOX® OFFERS TMJ SUFFERERS:

• Elimination of headaches caused by nighttime grinding.
• Minimization of lockjaw.
• Reduced discomfort when using the jaw.
• Reduced shoulder and neck pain.
• Substantially reduced jaw tension.
