BTL Expands EMFACE Uses to Treat TMJ

---

BTL Industries, a global leader in medical and wellness technologies, has expanded the FDA-cleared applications of its EMFACE® platform with a new indication for the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction.

EMFACE® is now cleared by the FDA for the relief of symptoms associated with muscle spasm, treatment of TMJ dysfunction and associated pain, muscle re-education, increased local blood flow, and the maintenance or improvement of mandibular range of motion.

Developed through years of research and engineering, EMFACE combines synchronized radiofrequency and HIFES® technology for facial muscle stimulation, delivering relief without surgery, injections, or medication.

“EMFACE is an established technology platform with multiple FDA-cleared uses,” said David Chmel, CEO of BTL Industries. “This new indication allows dental, oral health, and wellness providers to address TMJ dysfunction within its approved uses, expanding the benefits of EMFACE to more patients.”

“TMJ dysfunction impacts more than the jaw—it affects quality of life,” said Shireen Dhanani, DMD, Leesburg, FL. “With EMFACE, we can now offer an accessible, non-invasive option that not only helps patients find relief and functional improvement but also expands the scope of dental care.”

BTL continues to redefine what’s possible in facial care and wellness, bringing science-backed technologies like EMFACE into new areas of medicine to improve lives and advance patient care worldwide.
