Italian term or phrase: EDM
I have not been able to find any references to this.

Its from an article describing the use of palate expanders in orthodontics.

"Il dispositivo E D M rende possibile l’utilizzo contemporaneo del disgiuntore, degli elementi in acrilico di ortopedia mandibolare e di tecniche di ortodonzia fissa, realizzando una interlocuzione mirata e simultanea con la componente scheletrica mascellare, con la componente scheletrica mandibolare e con la componente dento-alveolare della malocclusione"

The article jumps straight into using the acronym without any explanation, so it may be something an orthodontist might identify immediately.

Explanation:
La sigla EDM sta per Elisabetta Di Massa, che altri non è che la dottoressa che ha ideato questo dispositivo per il trattamento dell'ortopedia dentofacciale. Si tratta quindi di un marchio registrato. Lo lascerei così com'è: EDM.
