Bruxism refers to the unconscious and involuntary grinding or clenching of the teeth, which often occurs during sleep, but can also occur during the day. The teeth are strongly pressed together or moved back and forth. This habit can lead to considerable health problems. It is a condition that can cause not only physical but also psychological stress and impair quality of life.
Bruxism is often stress-related, but can also have other causes. These include anxiety, tension, sleep disorders or even abnormalities in the structure of the teeth and jaw. It is a serious issue with long-term consequences for health and well-being. Treatment of bruxism is therefore necessary to prevent damage and improve quality of life.
Bruxism can cause a range of unpleasant symptoms and long-term effects. The most common symptoms of bruxism include:
In the long term, bruxism can lead to serious dental consequences, including tooth loss and temporomandibular joint disorders such as temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). This is why anti-grinding therapy is necessary and recommended.
The treatment of bruxism as anti-grinding therapy from Aesthetify by DR. RICK & DR. NICK consists of the use of Botox®. The botulinum toxin is injected specifically into the muscles of the jaw area – specifically into the masseter muscle, one of the muscles of mastication, to reduce muscle activity. This relaxes the muscles and reduces teeth grinding. However, this procedure does not usually cause any problems when chewing. The process is quick, safe and performed by our doctors at Aesthetify.
Bruxism is a common problem that can have a considerable impact on quality of life. Jaw pain and headaches, dental problems, a changed facial shape and psychological stress are just some of the possible consequences. Botox® treatment at Aesthetify can be a promising and effective alternative to quickly become symptom-free.
Bruxism therapy can be performed at Aesthetify by DR. RICK & DR. NICK can also take place as part of a facial narrowing procedure. The chewing muscle, which makes the face appear wider, is paralyzed and reduced in size. Narrowing the face not only has health benefits, but also aesthetic effects. In this context, treatment with Botox® offers a promising and effective alternative. It aims to alleviate the symptoms and improve general well-being, enabling those affected to live a life free of discomfort.

The effect of Botox® usually lasts for about 4 to 8 months. The treatment may be repeated as required. A refresher treatment may be necessary to maintain the desired effects. Continuous anti-grinding therapy can support the treatment results in the long term.
/
In the first 24 hours after bruxism therapy, you should limit certain activities such as sports or hot baths. In addition, keep your head upright for about 3 hours after treatment. This helps to ensure that the Botox® is evenly distributed.

The prices are calculated according to the GOÄ and are to be understood as guide prices. At DR. RICK & DR. NICK, you can expect a bruxism treatment with Botox® to cost from around €400.00. At Aesthetify, we attach great importance to transparency and discuss all costs with you in advance.
/
Treatment with Botox® is generally quick and painless. Most patients report only a slight stinging sensation during the injection. DR. RICK & DR. NICK can confirm this from their own experience.
/
As with any medical treatment, there are potential risks and side effects with Botox® therapy for bruxism. These can include temporary pain at the injection site, slight swelling or redness and, in rare cases, allergic reactions. However, Botox® is generally low-risk.
At Aesthetify, all risks and side effects are discussed with you in detail to ensure a safe and effective treatment.
1.
A complete cure for bruxism is not possible in many cases, as the underlying causes – such as stress and anxiety – often persist. However, Botox® treatment at Aesthetify can help to significantly reduce the symptoms of bruxism in the long term.
2.
As a rule, cosmetic treatments with Botox® are not covered by statutory health insurance. However, there may be exceptions, especially if there is a medical need, e.g. due to teeth grinding or temporomandibular joint disorders. It is therefore advisable to check with your health insurance provider.
