Masseter Botox in Dubai — jaw slimming and teeth grinding
Clenching enlarges the masseter muscles, making the lower face look wider and causing jaw ache, headaches and tooth wear.
Masseter Botox relaxes the large chewing muscles at the jaw angle. It is used to soften a square jaw and to reduce clenching and grinding. At Manhal Medical Center, dermatology and dental teams can coordinate with night guards and TMJ assessment.
Key facts
- Relaxes chewing muscles
- Slimmer lower face over weeks
- Helps clenching and grinding
- Repeat about every 4–6 months
Slimming effect
As the muscle relaxes over several weeks, the lower face can look slimmer; full effect is seen at around six to eight weeks.
Grinding and clenching
Botox reduces muscle force, which can ease jaw tension; a night guard still protects the teeth.
Combined dental care
Our dentists check tooth wear and the jaw joint, so treatment addresses the cause as well as the muscle.
Botulinum toxin relaxes the muscles that create expression lines. When dosed carefully it softens lines while keeping natural movement.
