Bruxism

Target Muscles: Masseter: This is the primary muscle involved in chewing and is located on the sides of the jaw.

Temporalis: This muscle is located on the sides of the head, above the temples, and also contributes to jaw movement.

Injection Points: Masseter: Injections are typically placed along the outer edge of the masseter muscle, where it attaches to the jawbone.

Temporalis: Injections are placed in the temporalis muscle, along the side of the head.

How it Works: Endopeel works by temporarily changing the shape as the tension of  the muscles, reducing their amplitude to contract and clench, which in turn reduces teeth grinding and associated pain.

Effect Duration: The effects of Endopeel for such indication typically last for 3-6 months.

Other Muscles: In some cases, depending on the severity of the bruxism, injections might also be placed in the medial pterygoid muscle, which is located on the inside of the jaw.

 Injecting into masseter muscle is generally more than enough for bruxism, and injecting into other masticatory muscles
