Aesthetic treatments for jaw clenching and teeth grinding (bruxism) require medical assessment rather than promotion of specific injectables. TGA guidelines restrict public-facing content from detailing prescription-only muscle relaxants like botulinum toxin.
TreatmentNon-surgical options for bruxism may include dental devices (mouthguards), physiotherapy, stress management, oral medications where appropriate, or higher-risk procedures performed by qualified practitioners after consultation. Specific approaches depend on symptom severity, dental health and patient suitability; effects vary and often require maintenance.RisksTemporary side effects can include injection-site pain, bruising, swelling or mild muscle weakness (e.g., chewing changes). Rarer complications involve asymmetry, flu-like symptoms, infection or unintended muscle effects, minimised through precise administration by experienced providers. Full risk discussion occurs during consultation before any decision.
