Professional Masseter, Bruxism & Jaw Slimming Treatments
Teeth grinding, clinically referred to as bruxism, is a common condition that can place ongoing strain on the jaw muscles. Over time, this may contribute to symptoms such as jaw tension, facial discomfort, headaches, or excessive wear on the teeth. Management options for teeth grinding vary and are not suitable for everyone. Identifying the underlying cause is essential before any management approach can be considered.
At SKYN, we offer personalised consultations to assess jaw muscle activity, discuss symptoms, and determine whether further clinical evaluation or management options may be appropriate for your individual circumstances.

During a consultation, your practitioner will:
