Botox

East Cobb, GA

Did you know that your dentist can administer Botox? Botox can address symptoms of TMJ disorders, from headaches to facial pain. This treatment can also minimize wrinkles for fresher, smoother skin. Dr. Daniela Lemoine provides cosmetic dental treatment and improves facial aesthetics with Botox in East Cobb, GA. She has the training to apply Botox safely to target key areas of the face. Botox may be used alone or as the last step to compliment a smile makeover.

How Does Botox Work?

Botox is a neurotoxin, which means that it affects the nerve impulses of muscles. When Dr. Lemoine injects Botox into the muscle tissue, it relaxes the muscle and releases tension in the face or jaw. Botox addresses these wrinkles in the face:

Crow’s feet
Forehead wrinkles
Smokers’ lines
Frown lines between the eyebrows

Dr. Lemoine provides quick Botox treatment and can target these areas of the face and even the jaw. Patients will see results from Botox within ten to fourteen days and their results can also last over six months. Dr. Lemoine can also provide follow-up treatments to her patients as needed to maintain their results.

Botox for TMD and Headaches in East Cobb, GA

Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) can cause a variety of problems, including jaw and tooth pain, headaches, and teeth clenching and grinding. The temporomandibular joints, which connect the skull and jawbone cause issues if patients have crooked teeth or injure their jaw. Botox may help patients with TMJ disorders relieve their symptoms. Dr. Lemoine can inject Botox into the jaw muscles to relax them and alleviate problems like bruxism, tooth pain, and jaw pain. When Dr. Lemoine injects Botox into the forehead or jaw, it relaxes the muscles and tension caused by TMD.

After patients receive Botox in their jaw or face, they should avoid touching their face. Additionally, patients should avoid alcohol or sun exposure 24 hours after treatment. Sun exposure can lead to redness or swelling while alcohol may prolong your recovery.
