Teeth grinding (bruxism) involves unconscious teeth clenching during sleep or while awake. Our specialised medical aesthetic treatments target the masseter muscle to reduce grinding pressure, protecting tooth enamel and relieving jaw discomfort. Medical-grade solutions offer effective relief without invasive procedures. Contact our clinic for personalised bruxism treatment options.
If you suffer from the painful effects of teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, you’re not alone. This common condition involves the involuntary clenching and grinding of teeth, often during sleep. Over time, chronic teeth grinding can lead to a host of problems, including:
At Celeste Medical, our experienced medical professionals offer a highly effective treatment for teeth grinding: anti-wrinkle injections.
By precisely targeting the specific muscles responsible for clenching and grinding, these injections work to relax the jaw and provide much-needed relief from the discomfort associated with bruxism.
The anti grinding treatment itself is quick and straightforward, typically taking just 20 minutes to complete. You can expect to see noticeable results within 2 to 5 days post-treatment, with the effects lasting approximately 4 months before a follow-up treatment is required.

Anti-wrinkle injections for teeth grinding are generally well-tolerated, with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience temporary redness at the injection sites, which typically subsides quickly. Bruising is another potential side effect, though this is usually mild and short-lived.
To minimise the risk of bruising, we recommend taking Arnica tablets for one week prior to your appointment. Should bruising occur, applying topical Arnica cream and icing the affected area can help speed up the healing process. We also advise avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours post-treatment and refraining from massaging or rubbing the treated areas.
The effects of anti-wrinkle injections for teeth grinding typically last around 4 months, after which a touch-up treatment may be necessary to maintain the results and continue to experience relief from the symptoms of bruxism.
