I had Botox injections in my jaw and it has helped tremendously. Dental associates of RI on Atwood ave did it for about 600$

Did insurance cover this or did you pay out of pocket?

Out of pocket. I have really good insurance but they still wouldn’t cover a dime. I’ve tried everything, night guards, PT, jaw exercises, nothing worked. The injections helped tremendously

Thanks for responding. Insurance wouldn’t cover a custom mouth guard either so this isn’t surprising.

I’m going to an ENT at the end of the month and my pcp suggested asking them how to get Botox covered by insurance for headaches. Maybe it’s possible (doubt it)? If I find a way, I will follow up on this post.

Edit: for headaches caused by tmj
