Injectable Muscle Relaxant Therapy
If you are struggling with jaw pain, clenching, or constant facial tightness, you don’t have to keep living with that discomfort. Injectable muscle relaxant therapy offers a gentle, effective way to calm tense muscles and ease pain without surgery or downtime.
At Englewood Oral Surgery, our board-certified oral surgeons perform this treatment with precision and care. Each injection is customized to your muscle activity, giving you natural relief and improved comfort that lasts.

Understanding Injectable Muscle Relaxant Therapy
Injectable muscle relaxant therapy is a simple procedure that helps overworked facial muscles relax. These injectables, often known as neuromodulators, work by softly blocking nerve signals that cause muscles to tighten or clench.
For patients who suffer from TMJ pain, grinding (bruxism), or facial muscle strain, this treatment can make a noticeable difference. By relaxing those tense areas, your jaw can move freely again, and that constant feeling of tightness finally fades.
Tooth Extraction
Common reasons people consider this therapy include
Jaw pain or stiffness
Headaches or facial soreness from clenching
Grinding teeth during sleep
Limited jaw movement or clicking
Muscle tightness in the temples or cheeks
It’s a safe, non-surgical option that helps restore balance and comfort in everyday activities like eating, speaking, and smiling.

Treatment
Using a very fine needle, your surgeon carefully injects small amounts of the relaxant into targeted muscles. Most patients say it feels like a light pinch.
