Your smile is meant to shine, not ache. If you’re living with persistent jaw pain, tension headaches, or the silent toll of teeth grinding, you may be facing TMJ or bruxism.
Internationally recognized for his cosmetic and restorative dentistry expertise, Dr. Glosman brings over two decades of experience and advanced training from the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies.

Dr. Glosman and his team are trusted by discerning patients worldwide to deliver exceptional results paired with a luxurious experience rooted in integrity, safety, and clinical excellence. In this blog, we’ll cover TMJ and bruxism, when you shouldn’t ignore your symptoms, and how we can help.
What Are TMJ and Bruxism?
The temporomandibular joint is the hinge connecting your jawbone to your skull, enabling you to speak, chew, and express yourself. When this joint or its surrounding muscles become inflamed or misaligned, it can lead to persistent pain, tension, and dysfunction, commonly known as TMD or TMJ disorders.
Bruxism often accompanies or contributes to TMJ. Many people grind their teeth unconsciously, especially during sleep, leading to:
- Tooth damage
- Facial soreness
- Chronic headaches
Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore
TMJ and bruxism symptoms can present as other issues, but if you experience the following, your jaw may be the root cause:
- Clicking or popping sounds when moving your jaw
- Frequent headaches or migraines
- Jaw, ear, or neck pain
- Tension in the face or temples
- Difficulty chewing or opening your mouth fully
- Teeth that appear flat, cracked, or overly sensitive
If any of these symptoms feel familiar, it’s time for a change.
BOTOX for TMJ
While BOTOX is beloved for smoothing fine lines, its therapeutic benefits are equally powerful. Dr. Glosman uses FDA-approved BOTOX injections to relax overactive jaw muscles, helping to:
- Reduce grinding and clenching
- Alleviate facial and jaw tension
- Protect tooth enamel from erosion
- Ease tension headaches and migraines
- Restore normal jaw movement and comfort
Injected precisely into the masseter and temporalis muscles, therapeutic BOTOX interrupts the chronic strain patterns that drive TMJ and bruxism symptoms. Best of all, the treatment takes minutes. The effects can last 4 to 6 months, and many patients feel relief in just a few days.
Other Treatment Options
Not every patient needs or wants BOTOX, and Dr. Glosman’s treatment philosophy is always individualized. Alternative or complementary therapies may include:
- Custom-fitted nightguards to prevent nighttime grinding
- Stress-reduction techniques to minimize tension triggers
- Targeted bite alignment procedures
- Restorative treatments to repair worn or damaged teeth
