Medical Botox for TMJ pain, jaw tension & teeth grinding — plus aesthetic facial Botox. US-trained specialist, English service, Songdo IBD.
Botox at the Dentist —
More Than Just Aesthetics
At Seoul Michigan UPenn Dental Clinic, we use Botox for two distinct purposes: medical treatment of jaw-related conditions, and aesthetic enhancement of the smile and facial profile.
Dentists are uniquely qualified to administer facial Botox — with deep clinical knowledge of facial anatomy, muscles, and occlusion that general aesthetics practitioners often lack. Dr. Lee is trained through the American Facial Aesthetics Society in both therapeutic and cosmetic Botox applications.
- Treats TMJ pain, bruxism (teeth grinding) & jaw tension
- Aesthetic softening of the masseter for a slimmer jaw profile
- Correction of gummy smile
- Perioral lines, lip flip & smile enhancement
- All administered by a US-trained dental specialist
- Full assessment in English before any treatment
TMJ & Bruxism Treatment
Botox injected into the masseter and temporalis muscles reduces grinding force, relieves jaw pain, and protects teeth from wear — without surgery.
Facial Aesthetics & Smile Enhancement
Masseter reduction (V-line), gummy smile correction, lip flip, and perioral rejuvenation — delivered by a specialist who understands how facial muscles interact with your bite.
Medical Botox for TMJ & Bruxism
Many patients come to us specifically for Botox to treat jaw-related problems — not for cosmetic reasons. This is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for chronic TMJ pain and teeth grinding.
Jaw Joint Pain & Tension
Chronic jaw pain, clicking, locking, and tension headaches associated with TMD (temporomandibular disorder) respond well to Botox injected into the masseter and temporalis muscles.
- Reduces muscle hyperactivity driving jaw pain
- Relieves tension headaches from jaw clenching
- Non-surgical — no recovery time required
- Effects begin within 3–7 days
Teeth Grinding Treatment
If you grind your teeth at night (bruxism), Botox into the masseter significantly reduces grinding force — protecting your teeth, crowns, and implants from further wear, even while you sleep.
- Reduces grinding force by up to 70–80%
- Protects enamel, restorations & implants
- Often combined with a night guard
- Lasts 4–6 months per treatment
Enlarged Jaw Muscle — Medical & Aesthetic
Masseter hypertrophy (κ³Όλνκ² λ°λ¬ν κΉ¨λ¬Όκ·Ό) can occur from grinding or genetics — causing a square jawline, facial asymmetry, and jaw fatigue. Botox into the masseter gradually reduces the muscle bulk over 4–6 weeks, addressing both the functional problem and the cosmetic concern simultaneously. This is one of our most popular combined therapeutic-aesthetic treatments.
- Gradual V-line jaw slimming over 4–6 weeks
- Relieves jaw fatigue and clenching discomfort
- Corrects facial asymmetry from uneven grinding
- Results last 4–6 months; muscle reduces progressively with repeat treatments
Cosmetic Facial Botox & Smile Enhancement
Patients who want facial rejuvenation or smile enhancement alongside their dental treatment can receive aesthetic Botox in the same appointment — administered by a specialist with deep knowledge of facial anatomy.
Gummy Smile Treatment
If your upper lip rises too high when you smile, revealing excess gum tissue, a small amount of Botox into the lip elevator muscles limits the upward movement — creating a more balanced smile without surgery.
- Natural-looking result in 3–5 days
- No surgery, no downtime
- Highly targeted injection technique
- Can be combined with veneers or whitening
Lip Flip & Perioral Lines
A lip flip uses a small amount of Botox above the upper lip to relax the orbicularis oris — causing the lip to roll slightly outward, appearing fuller without filler. Perioral lines (smoker's lines) are also addressed with precise micro-injections.
- Subtle lip enhancement without dermal filler
- Softens vertical lip lines
- Natural, non-overfilled result
- Can be combined with dental treatment visits
Masseter V-Line Reduction
Cosmetic masseter Botox creates a slimmer, more defined lower face — the V-line effect. Popular with patients who want facial contouring without surgery or implants.
- Gradual slimming over 4–6 weeks
- No surgery, no recovery
- Doubles as TMJ/bruxism treatment
- Progressive improvement with repeat treatments
Forehead Lines & Crow's Feet
Standard aesthetic Botox for horizontal forehead lines, glabellar (frown) lines between the brows, and crow's feet — softening facial expression lines for a rested, natural appearance.
- Results appear within 3–7 days
- Lasts approximately 3–5 months
- Precise dosing for natural expression
- Available as add-on to any dental appointment
Which Type of Botox Is Right for You?
Many patients benefit from both — for example, masseter Botox simultaneously treats bruxism and slims the jaw. We assess each case individually and never administer Botox without a full consultation first.
