EmFace Functional for TMJ is a non-invasive treatment option that may be recommended for patients with jaw tension, facial muscle concerns or TMJ-related discomfort. At R. Lindsey Dalley, DDS, Dr. Lindsey Dalley offers EmFace Functional in Las Vegas, Nevada, as part of a thoughtful approach to helping patients support jaw comfort, facial muscle function and overall wellbeing.
TMJ-related concerns can affect the way your jaw feels, moves and functions throughout the day. Because the jaw, facial muscles, bite and surrounding structures work together, treatment should be personalized to your symptoms and needs.

How EmFace Functional Works
EmFace Functional is designed to support facial and jaw-related muscle function in a non-invasive way. For patients with TMJ-related concerns, the goal is to evaluate how the muscles are contributing to tension, discomfort or imbalance and determine whether this treatment may be appropriate.
Because TMJ symptoms can have several contributing factors, EmFace Functional may be one part of a broader treatment discussion. Dr. Lindsey Dalley will review your symptoms, dental history and goals before recommending any treatment.
