First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This small study looked at 17 adults with bruxism (teeth grinding) who received Botox injections in their jaw muscle. Researchers used ultrasound to measure muscle thickness and texture before treatment, at 14 days, and at 90 days. They also tracked pain levels. The goal was to see how the muscle changes after Botox, not to test if it works as a treatment.
