Can I claim Masseter/TMJ botox as a medical expense?

My dentist administered botox to my masseter muscles to help alleviate my pain and teeth grinding from TMJ. Am I able to claim the cost of treatment as a medical expense? Thanks!

You might be eligible to claim the costs for the treatment as a medical expense if it was prescribed by a medical practitioner. It would be best to contact the Canada Revenue Agency for the clarification on your specific situation.
