What is Botox?
Temporomandibular Joint Disorders
Jaw pain / soreness, jaw clicking or popping, headaches such as dull aches to chronic migraines, teeth grinding, jaw clenching
BOTOX® is used as an alternative treatment for TMJ (temporo-mandibular joint) disorders and associated jaw tension and pain. When injected into facial muscles afflicted with soreness and discomfort, BOTOX® relieves TMJ and jaw tension for many patients.
Botox can alleviate joint and muscle pain. At the same time, Botox removes wrinkles and slims down your face. In our office we only use Allergan.
If you are experiencing symptoms of TMJ, our office provides BOTOX treatments to relax the masseter and temporalis muscles, relieving pain and clenching. Schedule an evaluation today 941-505-1200.

Dermal Filler Treatments
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that are injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines and soften creases, or enhance facial contours. More than 1 million men and women annually have chosen this popular facial rejuvenation treatment, which can be a cost-effective way to look younger without surgery or downtime. While dermal fillers are casually known as “wrinkle fillers,” they can do much more than just smooth out wrinkles, although they are excellent at this too! Here are a few of the common issues dermal fillers can help address:
- Smooth out lines around nose and mouth (a.k.a. marionette lines, smile lines, and parentheses)
- Enhance & restore volume to sunken cheeks or temples
- Diminish vertical lip lines
- Plump & enhance the lips
- Smooth out a chin crease
- Improve symmetry among facial features
In our office we only use Allergan.
