Muscle Relaxants
Muscle relaxants are commonly used in dentistry to manage conditions such as night grinding and clenching, as well as to relieve jaw pain. These medications work by relaxing the muscles of the jaw, which can help reduce tension and discomfort. By relieving muscle tension, muscle relaxants can also be helpful in treating other conditions related to muscle spasm or tightness. However, like any medication, muscle relaxants do have potential side effects, and it's important to consult with a qualified Botox Whangaparaoa dentist to determine if this treatment is right for you.

Facial injectables (Dysport, Botox)
We’ve all heard about it, so what is it and how does it work? Botox, or onobotulinumtoxin A, is a popular medication that is made from a purified protein derived from botulinum toxin. It works by temporarily blocking chemical signals from the nerves, which causes the facial muscles to relax. As a result, wrinkles and lines on the face are softened, giving the appearance of a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
While Botox is widely known for its cosmetic uses, such as reducing wrinkles and fine lines, it also has other applications, particularly in the field of dentistry. Our Botox Whangaoaraoa dentists are qualified to administer Botox can use it for various dental conditions, including Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and bruxism, facial muscle pain due to clenching or grinding teeth, relieving tension in the jaw, and addressing aesthetic dental issues such as deep nasolabial folds, radial lip lines, high lip line, and black triangles between teeth.
When administered by an experienced professional, Botox is a safe and reliable medication that can produce natural-looking results and allow for full facial expressions. The effects of Botox typically last for several months, after which the medication gradually wears off and the muscles return to their previous state.
