Article Synopsis
- - This study introduces a new temporomandibular joint (TMJ) prosthesis designed based on the individual movement patterns of the jaw, using advanced musculoskeletal simulations to compare its effectiveness against existing prostheses.
- - A 23-year-old female participant underwent imaging and muscle activity recording to construct a detailed model of her jaw movements, ultimately leading to the design of a custom prosthesis that showed improved performance.
- - Results indicated that the new envelope-based prosthesis allowed for greater jaw opening and less strain on certain jaw muscles compared to the traditional Biomet and ellipsoidal prostheses, demonstrating its potential benefits for TMJ patients.
