Dento-Facial Services

For many people, jaw pain, headaches and muscle tension can make everyday life uncomfortable. Many individuals don’t realise some of these issues are often connected to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), which controls how the jaw moves. At Logan Reserve Dental, we offer injectables in Logan Reserve, QLD, to help relieve TMJ/TMD symptoms, ease sore jaw muscles and improve overall dento-facial comfort.

Under the care of our team, injectables can provide safe, targeted relief—and in some cases, may also offer cosmetic benefits. All injectables provided by Logan Reserve Dental are administered by qualified, registered practitioners in accordance with current AHPRA guidelines. Results and treatment times vary. 

What Are Injectables?

Our dentists use injectables to relax overactive muscles in the jaw, reducing strain and minimising pain associated with TMJ disorders, teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw clenching. By calming these muscles, injectables can help ease discomfort, protect teeth from excessive wear and improve jaw function.

The Benefits of Injectables

Injectables can do more than smooth lines—they can also provide relief from jaw tension and TMJ disorders.
Relieves Jaw Tension

Frequently Asked Questions

All injectables provided by Logan Reserve Dental are administered by qualified, registered practitioners in accordance with current AHPRA guidelines. Results and treatment times vary.

Therapeutic injectables can help relax overactive muscles, making them a valuable treatment for conditions like temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ/TMD), teeth grinding (bruxism) and chronic jaw tension. By reducing muscle strain, these injectables can help relieve pain, protect teeth from wear and improve jaw function.

In addition to therapeutic uses, dento-facial injectables can complement cosmetic dentistry by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth. It can also correct 'gummy smiles' by reducing excessive gum display when one smiles. 

The procedure itself is performed right in our dental clinic. Most patients describe only minor discomfort, similar to a small pinprick and results typically last 3–4 months.

How Injectables Help with TMJ/TMD Symptoms

  • Relieve Jaw Pain and Tension — Relaxing the jaw muscles can reduce soreness and stiffness.
  • Reduce Headaches — Many patients find relief from tension headaches caused by clenching or grinding.
  • Protect Teeth — Minimising grinding forces, injectables can help prevent cracks, chips and wear on enamel.
  • Improve Daily Comfort — Eating, speaking and smiling can feel easier for many patients when jaw muscles are no longer overworked.

Cosmetic Applications

While our primary focus is on therapeutic use, injectables may also offer cosmetic benefits, such as softening the appearance of lines caused by muscle movement. At Logan Reserve Dental, cosmetic injectable treatments are available only at the discretion of our dentist, ensuring they are delivered safely and appropriately for each individual patient.
