What is Botox?
Botox is a widely recognized brand of neuromodulating agents that contain Botulinum Toxin, a purified protein that has both therapeutic and cosmetic applications. This type of injectable treatment is now commonly referred to as Botox.
Injections containing Botulinum Toxin (such as Botox), can be part of your dental treatment plan to help treat several therapeutic conditions.
When injected into the facial muscles, Botox releases neurotoxins. These substances can interrupt the signals from the nerves to the muscles, preventing the muscles from contracting, which ultimately helps them relax.
