Botox....alternative treatments
I've only ever known of Botox being used for cosmetic procedures, so imagine my surprise when my dentist suggested it as an option for 'teeth grinding/jaw-clenching issues.I've been using a mouth guard thingy off-and-on for the last few years, but it seems as though it's not enough. I'm betwixt and between....do it. don't do it. do it. don't. do. don't. Arghhhh!
I really don't want to put anything that synthetic into my body (especially at this age/stage of life), but.........:(

I'd say stick with the guard thingy, it can keep your molars separated and you can remove it in the morning.
Try it once because it only lasts for about three months before you need a new one. At that time having monitered the side effects you can make an informed decision whether to continue with the injections or go back to the guard.

Thanks for the advice Merlot. I think that that might indeed be the best way to go
Have a great day:)
Anyways, which did you opt for... if any?
