TMJ for Botox: I got 60 Units and don’t see any difference. Do I need more? (photos)

Asked By:TexasZae06 in Houston, Texas

My jaw has been popping and making a noise, like if I’m eating ice. My dentist recommended 60 units of Botox to help relax my temporal muscles. When I eat I hear my jaw popping still. Do I need more Botox or a different procedure? I went to 3 different orthodontist and they all say there’s nothing that can be done ONLY BOTOX.
