TMJ Treatment in Philadelphia

Relief for Jaw Clenching, Grinding & Masseter Tension

TMJ treatment at Enigma Medi Spa offers a safe, effective, and minimally invasive solution for clients who struggle with jaw clenching, teeth grinding, or masseter muscle tension. This popular treatment not only helps reduce discomfort caused by overactive jaw muscles, but can also create a slimmer, more contoured jawline over time. At Enigma, our experienced medical providers deliver customized treatment plans to help you feel more comfortable, protect your jaw from excessive strain, and refine facial harmony.

What is TMJ Treatment?

TMJ treatment uses targeted injectables to gently relax the masseter and/or temporalis muscles—the primary muscles responsible for clenching and grinding. By softening excessive muscle activity, clients often experience:
  • Reduced jaw tension
  • Decreased clenching or grinding
  • Improved comfort during chewing
  • A softer, slimmer jawline appearance

Benefits of TMJ Treatment

Relieves jaw tightness and tension

Helps reduce teeth grinding (bruxism)

Minimizes stress-related jaw discomfort

Creates jawline slimming and facial contouring over time

Quick procedure with no downtime

How the Treatment Works

Your provider evaluates your bite, muscle activity, and areas of tension. Small injections are placed into the masseter muscles on each side of the jaw—and, if needed, the temporalis muscles. The procedure takes about 10–15 minutes, and most clients describe it as quick and well tolerated.

When to Expect Results

You may begin noticing relief within 7–10 days, with full improvement developing over 2–4 weeks.
For facial slimming, visible cosmetic results typically appear gradually over repeated sessions as the muscle reduces in size.

Results usually last 3–6 months, depending on your muscle strength and clenching habits.

TMJ Treatment FAQ (Jaw Clenching / Grinding / Masseter Treatment)

1. What is a TMJ treatment?

TMJ treatment is an injectable procedure that helps relax overactive jaw muscles responsible for clenching, grinding, or TMJ discomfort. It can also slim and soften the jawline.

2. What areas are treated for TMJ?

The most common area is the masseter muscle (the jaw muscle on each side). Some clients may also need treatment in the temporalis muscles depending on symptoms.

3. How long does the procedure take?

The treatment usually takes about 10–15 minutes.

4. When will I feel relief?

Many clients begin feeling improvement within 7–10 days, with full results at about 2–4 weeks.

5. How long do the results last?

Results typically last 3–6 months, depending on muscle strength and grinding habits.

6. Can TMJ injections help with jawline slimming?

Most clients describe the procedure as very quick with minimal discomfort.

8. Is there downtime?

No major downtime. You can return to normal activities right after the appointment.
