FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely to dentistry, and can be used for treating bruxism. That is ensured by hardware determination tonic masseter straining, detecting among them muscles with pathological hypertonia, injection in each of them standard solution of botulinum toxin A and lantoksa in total a single dose up to 100 UNITS, the following control of efficiency and safety of injected drug owing to further analysis in face skin within a projection of these muscles dynamics of local temperature using infrared thermography and amplitude of potential amplifiers using surface electromyography during 3 weeks. Note here that before injection there is additional visualization with the help of ULTRASOUND muscle with pathological gipertonusom, before injection the solution is heated to + 37 °C, injection is performed in turn in every muscle under ultrasonic navigation, estimate accuracy and correctness injections of ultrasonic imaging localisation, size and shape of medicinal infiltrate appearing in tissues, safety injection is controlled additionally with the help of ULTRASOUND at duration of preservation and resorption postinjection medicamental infiltrate.

EFFECT: invention enables recovering the function of masseter muscels and eliminating the myofascial pain syndrome with dysfunction of temporomandibular joint, due to increased accuracy of metering and injection into a local myorelaxant in each muscle with the help of ultrasonic navigation.
