Botox Treatments

Smooth fine lines, relieve bruxism pain, and refine your facial contour — all performed by dental professionals with expert knowledge of facial anatomy.

Overview

Where Dentistry Meets Facial Aesthetics

Dentists treat the face every day — they understand facial muscles, nerves, and proportions better than almost any other clinician. Botox administered by a trained dental professional is precise, clinically grounded, and naturally integrated with your dental care. At Tandarts Leidseplein, we use botulinum toxin for both therapeutic and cosmetic applications.

Therapeutic Botox — Bruxism & Jaw Pain

Injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into the masseter muscles reduces the force of clenching, relieves chronic jaw pain, and can slim an overly square jawline.

  • Bruxism relief — Reduces grinding and clenching forces that damage teeth and cause pain.
  • TMJ pain — Eases tension in the jaw joint and surrounding muscles.
  • Jawline contouring — Slims a heavy or square jaw for a softer facial outline.
  • Headache reduction — Fewer headaches caused by chronic jaw muscle overload.

Cosmetic Botox — Fine Lines & Facial Harmony

Botox relaxes the small muscles responsible for expression lines — the result is a smoother, refreshed appearance that still looks natural and expressive.

Treatment & Results

Botox is a quick, minimally invasive procedure. Results develop over several days and typically last 3-4 months, after which a repeat treatment maintains the effect.

Duration — Treatment takes 15-30 minutes depending on areas treated.
Onset — Results become visible within 3-7 days and peak at two weeks.
Longevity — Effects last 3-4 months. Regular treatment can extend the interval over time.
Downtime — Minimal. Avoid strenuous exercise and lying down for 4 hours after treatment.
