Did you know Botox can improve more than just your looks? Therapeutic Botox offer a variety of other benefits, too!

What is Botox?

You probably know Botox for its cosmetic use to temporarily fade wrinkles and make your face look younger. What you may not be aware of is its use in the treatment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ) and other facial pain.

Used therapeutically, Botox can provide relief for a wide assortment of problems associated with intense or chronic muscle contraction. Treatment with Botox is often recommended for:

Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ)
Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS)
Tension-Type Headaches (TTH)
Dental restoration procedures
Bruxism (grinding) or Teeth Clenching
“Gummy” or “Off Center” Smiles
Migraine Headaches

Tre S.

Last Thursday evening, my future sone-in-laws permanent... retainer, removed itself from his mouth. It was not painful but very uncomfortable. There was an extreme amount of glue remaining. The next morning I set out to find a dentist or orthodontist available to fix, or clean up his mouth. As you are aware for those that live is Grass Valley, dentist or orthodontist on a Friday, impossible. I left messages everywhere. To my surprise, an orthodontist at Cater Galiente, by the name of Craig Christianson, returned my call personally. He happened to be in the office doing paperwork, when he heard my message. He saw us, on a Friday, at 12:30 pm. Repaired and and cleaned up what was left behind. He was kind, he was funny, he made him relaxed, and my son-in-law said it was the best dental or orthodontic appointment he had ever had. I highly recommend Cater Galiente Orthodontics for anyone. Craig was amazing, and gave up his time on a Friday. Wonderful place.read more
