Could you recommend a dentist who can treat my TMJ and Bruxism?

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I’m looking for a dental practitioner/consultant who can treat my bruxism/tmj by botox injection. After 32 years of problems with firstly, misaligned teeth from a bad dentist, causing me to grind my teeth which caused problems which my then dentist tried over time to regain my bite with a little success but did solve the problem. Over the past 10 years the problem has achieved epic proportons despite ‘appliances’ supplied by Manchester dental hospital, no treatment by North Staffs hospital, told joints are not ‘bad enought’ to operate on, did not ask them to operate on them but that is the only treatment they provide for TMJ. Have now graduated to TMJ and Bruixism, and teeth are suffering despite a bio feedback device and mouth guards/splints. I need to stabilise my condition in order to both receive pain relief and in order that my teeth may be repaired before I have a chance to break them. The only way I can see forward is to paralyse the muscles to some extent so that repair work may be carried out to stabilise my teeth, which whilst unattractive do at least allow me to eat. So any idea who in this country or in Europe is both qualified to carry out this treatment and is prepared to do it?

As an unregistered dental nurse, can I train to administer botox?

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011
Q.

I am a qualified dental nurse in London and been in the field for 13 years, I am not currently registered as I am more on the management side these days. Getting to the point can I administer botox and dermal fillers with the appropriate training or will I have to become registered firstly before doing so?
Many thanks for your time.

Friday, September 25th, 2009
Q.
I don’t like my smile because I show my gums at the top which makes me feel really conscious when I laugh, what procedure (if any) will prevent my lips moving all the way up when I smile and especially when I laugh?

What is your opinion on using botox to combat bruxism

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I have quite a bad bruxism problem and have done for about 10 years. I have a mouthguard (tanner appliance), but recently my grinding seems to have got worse – as soon as I have my appliance adjusted the next morning there are already deep grooves in it. My teeth are being visibly worn down on one side, are feeling fragile and are starting to move. I also feel that my gums are receeding. I also have facial pain, my jaw sounds like it’s crackling when I move it from side to side and my facial muscles are painful and sometimes swollen. I recently tried a muscle relaxant prescribed by my dentist but without success. I have heard about botox and wondered what your opinion was on its use to combat bruxism? Is it recommended generally and is it safe? Many thanks in advance.

Could i receive botox injections for bruxism on the NHS?

Saturday, June 20th, 2009
Q.
Could I recive Botox injections for Bruxism on the NHS? I have suffered with Bruxism for over 30 years. Treatments so far have been, my wisdom teeth removed, mouth guards, and the left joint of my jaw flushed out, none of which eased the tension in my jaw or my aching gums and constant headaches. My Orthodontist then prescribed antidepressants and discharged me.

Have you ever heard of a reason to inject botox below the eyebrow

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009
Q.
I have been having botox for the past 3 years and have today had botox for the first time given by a dentist. He injected below my eyebrow. I have never had botox injected below the eyebrow and am now so worried about getting a droopy eyelid. I obviously will know in the next couple of days but is it normal to inject there? Have you ever heard of a reason to inject below the eyebrow?
