Botox at West Long Branch Dental

Dr. Bastos is trained and certified by the American Association of Facial Esthetics to provide Botulinum Toxin (Botox) treatments. We offer Botox for both cosmetic and therapeutic purposes, helping you look and feel your best.

Cosmetic Benefits

Botox can smooth fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a refreshed, natural appearance. When administered by a trained dental professional, you can trust that your treatment is in skilled, caring hands.

Therapeutic Relief

Beyond cosmetic enhancement, Botox offers real therapeutic benefits. Many of our patients find relief from chronic headaches, migraines, and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) problems. By relaxing overactive muscles, Botox can reduce jaw tension, grinding, and the discomfort that comes with TMJ disorders.
