BOTOX

Two reasons.
One thoughtful approach.

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes specific muscles. Dr. Molly Sayball administers it here for two different reasons—one clinical and one cosmetic—and they’re worth understanding separately.

Clinical use — For clenching, grinding, tension headaches, or TMJ discomfort, Botox may help relax overworked jaw muscles. Dr. Sayball will confirm whether it fits your symptoms.

Cosmetic use — Botox can soften fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, and mouth, and may also help with a gummy smile or lip lines. Dr. Sayball will explain what is realistic for you.

What it’s like.

01 The consultation — Talk with Dr. Sayball about clinical concerns, cosmetic goals, or both.

02 The treatment — Small injections are completed chairside.

03 The wait — Results develop gradually as the targeted muscles relax.

04 The follow-up — We’ll review your response and discuss whether you want to continue.

When it isn’t the right answer.

Botox isn’t right for everyone. Tell Dr. Sayball about your health conditions, medicines, and whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding. We’ll review the risks and alternatives before treatment. For clenching or TMJ pain, a night guard or another approach may be a better fit. We’ll talk honestly about your options.

Bring your questions—even if you are only curious. Dr. Molly can explain your options.

What it costs: Your treatment cost is explained at your consultation.
