Please has anyone heard of botox for teeth grinding?? I am aware of mouthguards but i grind through them.?

I see a fantastic cosmetic dentist in Sydney,Dr Duncan Copp and he sorted my grinding problems. I used to be a huge grinder [bruxist] but he did all of this muscle testing,built up some of my very worn teeth to make the bite stable and issued me with a decent customised splint and it stopped the problem. He sent me to a cranial osteopath also.He told me the main reason people grind thier teeth at night is due to muscle imbalances not stress. He told me they have used Botox in severe bruxism cases and its greatly helped when it's combined with the other treatments.I hope this helps

see your doctor you are suffering from TMJ. most likely this is from stress.
