Are botox injections to masseter muscles (to ease TMJ pain) covered by medical insurance?

Insurance coverage for medical conditions is dependent on your own plan.  Typically this is something paid for by the patient.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.I would contact your insurance company to see if your plan covers this procedure. It would be completely dependent on your individual insurance plan. Good luck.

I would contact your insurance carrier to determine what their medical policy is for the coverage of Botox.   I have had one patient that we were able to obtain coverage for injections due to his TMJ diagnosis.  Unfortunately, many carriers do not cover this service but it would be worth a phone call to them to inquire.
