It is commonly used for smoothing facial wrinkles around the forehead, between the eyes, around the lips for vertical lines and smile lines around the eyes- “crow’s feet”. Also, Botox has important clinical uses as an adjunct in TMJ and bruxism cases, and for patients with chronic TMJ and facial pain.
Botox is also used to complement esthetic dentistry cases, as a minimally invasive alternative to surgically treating high lip line cases and denture patients who have trouble adjusting to new dentures.
