Evaluate and Optimize Craniofacial Muscle Function for Long Lasting Treatment Results
The intricate balance of craniofacial musculature is paramount to successful and stable dental treatments. Electromyography helps objectively assess muscle activity, identify dysfunctions, and verify treatment efficacy by providing insights into patient physiology to guide treatment procedures and enhance long-term outcomes.
What does BIO EMG do?
Objective Muscle Evaluation: Go beyond subjective assessments. BioEMG precisely measures the electrical activity of craniofacial muscles during various states like rest, chewing, and clenching.
Identify and Diagnose Dysfunction: Clearly identify improper muscle function, imbalances, or hyperactivity that can compromise dental work or indicate underlying issues.
Pre-Treatment Verification: Test proposed bite positions and the effects of dental procedures on muscle function before finalizing treatment, allowing for critical adjustments.
Achieve Neuromuscular Balance: Use biometric data to create harmony between muscle groups, crucial for comfort, stability, and the longevity of restorations.
Quantify Resting Levels: Accurately determine a patient's true muscular resting state, vital for appliance therapy and TMD management.
Ensure Long-Term Stability: By understanding and addressing muscle function, you can significantly improve the predictability and durability of your dental treatments.
Enhanced Patient Communication: Visually demonstrate muscle activity to patients, improving their understanding and acceptance of proposed treatments.
The Technology Behind BioEMG
Multi-Channel Recording: Simultaneously records electrical bio-potentials from up to eight key muscles.
High-Fidelity Amplification: Microvolt signals are amplified with exceptional clarity up to 5,000 times their original levels.
Comprehensive Data Display: Muscle activity is displayed on your computer as detailed time-domain waveforms and averaged levels, revealing precise contraction patterns and relative intensities for straightforward analysis.
