Understanding TMJ
TMJ (temporomandibular joint disorder) affects the joint and muscles that control jaw movement. When these muscles become overworked or imbalanced, it can lead to ongoing discomfort, tension, and limited jaw function, which can significantly impact daily life.
In cases where TMJ symptoms are primarily muscular, EMFACE may be used as a supportive dental therapy.
How EMFACE Works for TMJ
EMFACE utilizes Ultra-Low Frequency HIFES™, synchronized with radiofrequency (RF), to gently stimulate and retrain the facial muscles involved in jaw movement. This helps relax overworked muscles, improve coordination, and restore healthy jaw function—without needles or surgery.
Clinically Proven Results
In a clinical evaluation of dental patients (ages 23-77) who received four 20-minute EMFACE® treatments:
Reported improved jaw relaxation
Experienced better jaw mobility
Reported reduced pain while eating and chewing
Saw improvement in daily oral activities like brushing and flossing
In addition to these, no adverse events were reported. Patients also showed improved jaw movement, including a measurable increase in mouth opening, with sustained improvement at one-month follow-up.
