The answer is yes! Dr. Leonardi uses Xeomin and BOTOX® to relieve jaw pain. Both treatments use botulinum toxin type A to block the nerve signals to the muscle in which it was injected; however, the difference between them is that Xeomin doesn't contain any other additives.
How Do BOTOX and Xeomin Work?
Dr. Leonardi carefully injects BOTOX or Xeomin into the muscles responsible for jaw movement and function. Botulinum toxin type A causes the muscles to relax, relieving any pain or discomfort caused by the temporomandibular disorder or TMD.
The effects and relief from discomfort typically last for four to six months before you need another injection.
Why Choose a Dentist for Injections of BOTOX or Xeomin?
Your Goffstown dentist is an expert in facial anatomy because of her extensive training to become a dentist, making her the best choice for delivering facial injections.
Dr. Leonardi is also experienced in administering pain-free injections because she is used to delivering dental anesthetic to her patients.
