Anti-Wrinkle Solutions – Teeth grinding/bruxism

More professionally known as “Bruxism,” teeth grinding, or jaw clenching, is a condition without a definitive cause, although there are a number of factors that are thought to be linked. In particular, stress and anxiety, certain medications, sleep disorders and lifestyle factors, like alcohol consumption and smoking, are all known to influence teeth grinding. Most sufferers tend to grind subconsciously, both while awake and during sleep. In a lot of cases, there can be no symptoms at all, but when symptoms do occur they can be very debilitating. Teeth grinding can cause pain, headaches, ear aches, sleep deprivation, tooth wear and even broken teeth and fillings.

Anti-wrinkle solutions have been found to be an effective treatment for bruxism. The toxin acts as a paralytic in very small doses to minimise muscle spasms for months at a time. This tackles teeth grinding at the source of the problem by weakening the masticatory muscles, while still retaining the ability to function properly, rather than simply masking the symptoms.

For these treatments we do a review at two weeks to check the results and top up free of charge if necessary, subject to practitioners discretion.

“I was nervous about trying fillers but Dr David put me at ease right away. The whole team are so friendly and welcoming. Before my treatment David went through a pre treatment medical assessment, which made me feel safe and secure as I have seen some horror stories before! I had Botox and Lip Fillers and I love them. I get so many compliments on how natural looking my lips are and how my complexion is glowing – for the first time in my life people are saying “you have such amazing clear skin!”…”
