| Rappoel Clinic<\/div>\n<h1>Teeth Grinding (Bruxism) Treatment with Coretox at Rappoel Seoul \u2014 Stop Jaw Tension Without Surgery<\/h1>\n<div class=\"sub\">Teeth grinding damages more than enamel \u2014 jaw tension, headaches and facial widening are treatable with Coretox<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Bruxism \u2014 involuntary teeth grinding during sleep \u2014 is far more damaging than most people realize. Beyond wearing down enamel, chronic jaw clenching causes morning jaw soreness, temporal headaches, TMJ strain, and progressive masseter muscle hypertrophy that visibly widens the lower face. Coretox botulinum toxin injection is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments available, directly relaxing the overactive masseter without interfering with normal chewing.<\/p>\n<h2>How Bruxism Affects Your Health and Facial Structure<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Habitual clenching \u2192 masseter hypertrophy \u2192 wider jawline, square face appearance<\/li>\n<li>Chronic TMJ pressure \u2192 joint clicking, limited jaw opening range<\/li>\n<li>Repeated grinding \u2192 enamel erosion \u2192 tooth sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>Masseter-origin tension headaches centered at the temples and back of the neck<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Coretox Treats Bruxism<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Coretox<\/strong>, developed by Korean biopharmaceutical company Medytox, temporarily inhibits neuromuscular signals in the masseter. The muscle relaxes, biting force decreases, and the grinding habit naturally diminishes \u2014 the same mechanism as jaw-slimming injections, but with dosage and placement optimized for bruxism management.<\/p>\n<h3>Key Treatment Parameters<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>20\u201330 units per side injected at the thickest point of the masseter<\/li>\n<li>Effects last approximately <strong>4\u20136 months<\/strong>; grinding frequency significantly reduced<\/li>\n<li>After 2\u20133 treatment cycles, some patients experience long-term reduction in bruxism behavior<\/li>\n<li>Normal chewing and speech remain unaffected<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Treatment Process<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Consultation: Doctor assesses masseter thickness, grinding severity, and TMJ status<\/li>\n<li>Injection: 2\u20133 injection points per side, completed in 10\u201315 minutes<\/li>\n<li>Onset: Masseter relaxation begins 1\u20132 weeks post-injection; morning jaw pain improves<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<dl>\n<dt><strong>Q1: How quickly does Coretox work for teeth grinding?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Masseter relaxation typically begins 1\u20132 weeks after injection, with full effect at 3\u20134 weeks. Morning jaw soreness is usually the first symptom to improve.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Q2: Is Coretox better than regular botulinum toxin for bruxism?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Coretox has low diffusion properties, meaning it stays precisely where injected \u2014 important for a large muscle like the masseter where precision determines both therapeutic effect and aesthetic outcome.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Q3: Can I eat normally after the injection?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Yes. Biting force will be mildly reduced but daily eating is unaffected. Avoid extremely hard foods for the first 2 weeks.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Q4: Does Coretox permanently cure bruxism?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Botulinum toxin manages rather than cures bruxism. Maintenance injections every 4\u20136 months, combined with a nightguard if recommended by your dentist, provide effective long-term symptom control.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Q5: Who is a good candidate for this treatment?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>Ideal candidates include those with audible nighttime grinding, morning jaw pain, temporal headaches, TMJ discomfort, or visible masseter enlargement contributing to a square-faced appearance.<\/dd>\n<dt><strong>Q6: How do I book a bruxism consultation at Rappoel?<\/strong><\/dt>\n<dd>The clinic is a 3-minute walk from Gangnam Station Exit 10. Book via WeChat (rappoelkr) or Line (rappoelkr) \u2014 Mandarin-speaking consultation available on request.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<h2>Clinic Information<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\ud83d\udccd Address: 5F, 77 Seocho-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\ude87 Access: Gangnam Station Exit 10, 3-minute walk (Seoul Metro Line 2)<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udd50 Hours: Mon\u2013Fri 10:00\u201319:00 | Sat 10:00\u201317:00<\/li>\n<li>\ud83d\udcac Booking: WeChat rappoelkr | Line rappoelkr<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"cta\">\n<h3>Contact Rappoel Dermatology Clinic<\/h3>\n<p>\ud83d\udccd 77, Seocho-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul, South Korea<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd50 Mon\u2013Fri 10:00\u201319:00 \u00b7 Sat 10:00\u201317:00<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcac WeChat Main: rappoelkr | WeChat Backup: rappoelkr2 | LINE: rappoelkr<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:16px;font-size:13px;color:#8B7355;\">Scan to connect with us<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:flex;justify-content:center;gap:16px;flex-wrap:wrap;margin-top:10px;\">\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Rappoel\u5fae\u4fe1\u4e8c\u7ef4\u7801\uff08\u4e3b\u53f7\uff09-1.png\" alt=\"WeChat Main QR Code\" style=\"width:120px;height:120px;border-radius:6px;\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:11px;color:#6b5240;margin-top:4px;\">WeChat (Main)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Rappoel\u5fae\u4fe1\u4e8c\u7ef4\u7801\uff08\u5907\u7528\u53f7\uff09-1.png\" alt=\"WeChat Backup QR Code\" style=\"width:120px;height:120px;border-radius:6px;\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:11px;color:#6b5240;margin-top:4px;\">WeChat (Backup)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\">\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Line\u4e8c\u7ef4\u7801-1.jpg\" alt=\"LINE QR Code\" style=\"width:120px;height:120px;border-radius:6px;\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size:11px;color:#6b5240;margin-top:4px;\">LINE<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/body><br \/>\n<\/html><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Teeth grinding damages more than enamel \u2014 jaw tension, headaches and facial widening are treatable with Coretox<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-botox-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1092","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1092"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1092\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1094,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1092\/revisions\/1094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1092"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1092"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rappoel-clinic.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1092"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
