Electromyography (EMG) is a diagnostic tool used to measure the electrical activity of muscles, particularly in the jaw area. In dentistry, EMG helps in assessing the function and health of muscles that control jaw movement, enabling dentists to diagnose conditions like TMD, bruxism, and muscle spasms.

EMG technology offers a non-invasive method for understanding muscle-related issues in the jaw. This leads to more accurate diagnoses and targeted treatment plans, helping patients find relief from pain, muscle tension, and other symptoms associated with jaw disorders. With EMG, treatment outcomes are improved, resulting in a better quality of life for patients.
