Botox Injections in Chevy Chase

Botox can treat a number of esthetic and functional concerns, from managing tooth grinding to softening fine lines and wrinkles.

Tooth grinding, when not treated, can damage the teeth and restorations, create jaw pain and headaches, and contribute to bone loss and gum recession. Botox now provides a simple alternative treatment option for tooth grinding and associated jaw tension.

Gummy smiles, or display of excess gum tissue when smiling, are traditionally treated with aggressive surgical intervention, involving reduction of the bone around the teeth and crowning of the teeth. The application of just a few units of Botox now provides a noninvasive, quick, inexpensive and effective alternative, by relaxing the hyperactive lip muscles to a more esthetically pleasing position.

Wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, and their prevention and treatment is certainly a personal choice. If you find that the early signs of aging are becoming apparent on your face, you may consider adding Botox to your anti-aging routine.
