Abstract:
The temporomandibular joint(TMJ)is the critical functional unit in the human stomatognathic system.Damage of the TMJ causes orofacial dysfunction and secondary jaw deformities,leading to seriously decreased quality of life in patients.The TMJ prosthetic replacement is an important treatment method for severe joint destruction because of its remarkable advantages compared with other methods.In recent years,this technique has gradually attracted wide attention in China,but it has not been popularized on a large scale in our country because of several limitations.Thus,in this study,the clinical experience of patients with TMJ prosthetic replacement in clinical units was summarized,and the treatment principles,treatment processes,and technical advantages were systematically discussed,aiming to promote the popularization and application of TMJ prosthetic replace-ment in China.
