Muscle Relaxants
Smooth fine lines, relieve bruxism pain, and refine your facial contour — all performed by dental professionals with expert knowledge of facial anatomy.
Where Dentistry Meets Facial Aesthetics
Dentists treat the face every day — they understand facial muscles, nerves, and proportions better than almost any other clinician. Muscle relaxants administered by a trained dental professional are precise, clinically grounded, and naturally integrated with your dental care. At Tandarts Leidseplein, we use muscle relaxants for both therapeutic and cosmetic applications.
Therapeutic Muscle Relaxants — Bruxism & Jaw Pain
Injecting small amounts of muscle relaxants 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 Muscle Relaxants — Fine Lines & Facial Harmony
Muscle relaxants relax the small muscles responsible for expression lines — the result is a smoother, refreshed appearance that still looks natural and expressive.
Treatment & Results
A muscle relaxant treatment 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.
