Masseter Botox for Jaw Pain Relief?

March 18, 2024
Asked By:carol6868 in Portland, Oregon

I've had really intense jaw pain and headaches for years, but didn't realize how bad it had become until my dentist mentioned it during my last teeth cleaning since she heard my jaw clicking. She recommended a mouth guard, but it hasn't helped with my pain. I was wondering if botox would help with this, and if so, if it is covered by insurance? Additionally, is it something to bring up with a primary care doctor or a dentist? Thank you for any help!
