At Dermapure Parksville, located just over 30 minutes from Nanaimo, we offer a non-invasive and effective solution for bruxism—the involuntary grinding or clenching of teeth, often during sleep. Bruxism can cause jaw pain, tension headaches, worn teeth, and facial muscle strain.
Our bruxism injection treatments work by gently relaxing the masseter muscles, which are responsible for clenching and grinding. By reducing excessive muscle activity, the treatment helps relieve jaw pain, prevent further dental wear, and minimize headaches related to bruxism.
The procedure involves injecting small, precise amounts of product into the masseter muscles. It’s a quick and straightforward solution that offers lasting relief—without the need for dental appliances or invasive treatments.
Most patients experience relief from jaw tension, headaches, and teeth grinding within 1-2 weeks of treatment, with maximum results occurring by 3-4 weeks. Bruxism injections help reduce the frequency and severity of teeth grinding, improving comfort and preventing long-term damage. Regular follow-up treatments help maintain results, ensuring continued relief from bruxism symptoms.
During your consultation, our experts will assess your symptoms, grinding patterns, jaw tension, and medical history to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Bruxism injections involve a series of small injections into the masseter muscles. The procedure typically takes about 15-20 minutes with minimal discomfort. A numbing cream can be applied for added comfort.
There is minimal downtime after the procedure. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately. Mild swelling or tenderness at the injection sites may occur but resolves quickly.
Treatment prices vary based on your individual needs and the specific procedure performed. To learn more about pricing, we invite you to contact your clinic or schedule a consultation with our experts.
Results from bruxism injections typically start to appear within 1-2 weeks, with full effects seen by 3-4 weeks. Relief can last between 3 to 6 months, depending on the individual. To maintain results, follow-up treatments are recommended, with a personalized schedule to ensure continued relief from bruxism symptoms.
Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid this treatment. Active infections or irritations in the treatment area should be addressed first. Any allergies to injectable ingredients must be disclosed prior to treatment. Individuals with certain neurological or muscle disorders should consult a provider before proceeding.
