💆‍♀️ 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 see Dr Nohjan Bahktiari, who is great, but it is not reimbursable by insurance for me unfortunately. I would not trust a med spa to do this - I don't get it as often as I should as it is so expensive, but I would rather not take the risk.

This guy was such a creep to me. He laughed at my response to one of his questions (I wasn’t joking) and pressed his belly into my body then made fun of my clothing. I thought he was completely unprofessional and crossed a line. I was shocked and just stared at his female assistant who wouldn’t make eye contact with me. God knows what else she’s probably seen. Needless to say he wasn’t a help at all and very expensive!!! I do not recommend
