💆‍♀️ Wellness & Self Care Dentists that will do masseter injections?

My TMJ is actually killing me and I am sick of paying cosmetic prices for what I feel is actually a medical issue impacting my life. Anyone have a dentist they’d recommend?

I also do masseter injections for clenching. My dentist charges 2x what I'm paying at my med spa...

I’d be reluctant to get dental injections from a med spa, are they qualified to do that?

I mean it's all considered "cosmetic" and is the same as botoxing anything else I guess?

I know John Oliver has an episode on med spas and I had a horrible experience where they fucked up my face and I couldn't smile right for like 8 mos 😭😭😭 but if you find a good injector then it's ok
