Yea my Dr asked me to do botox for teeth grinding. Can last 6 months each time.
Your dental Dr sounds like a specialist located in Orchard. She told me my jaws had crack lines due to grinding. I then went to do one round of botox from an aesthetic Dr also in Orchard but I never returned for my 2nd botox appointment. I also threw my night-guard aside after using it for awhile
Botox will sharpen your face and I don't like it. But you can try it for once for a peace of mind
Grinding derives from stress, anxiety, sleep problems, etc... but the first thing you can watch out on, is not to grind your teeth while awake and keep your lips gently close(the objective is to train and prevent your top and bottom teeth from touching). I usually grind my teeth when I'm angry or during workouts last time but I learnt to stop this grinding habit. I'll always keep my lips a little bit open at all times
3 years on and I've consulted with another two alternative dental Drs. Both Drs did separate xrays on me and my jaws are fine now
