TMJ & Teeth Clenching Treatment

Service Description

If you’ve noticed your jawline appearing broader or more pronounced, it may be related to bruxism, a condition where clenching or grinding leads to enlargement of the masseter muscles. This can affect facial balance, create jaw discomfort and contribute to tension-related symptoms. Masseter treatment offers a non-surgical approach to softening a widened lower face while supporting functional relief. Jaw Slimming By relaxing the masseter muscles, this treatment can create a more refined and harmonious jawline. As the muscle activity decreases, the lower face often appears slimmer, contributing to a softer, more balanced facial silhouette. Many individuals also report improvement in tension through the jaw area over time. Teeth Grinding (Bruxism) Persistent grinding or clenching places significant strain on the masseter muscles, causing them to enlarge and altering facial proportions. It can also contribute to jaw pain, tightness and discomfort during daily activities such as chewing or speaking. Targeting the masseter muscles can help reduce this excessive activity, offering relief from tension while supporting a more streamlined aesthetic outcome.
