TMJ Replacement
TMJ replacement is a surgical procedure performed to replace a damaged or severely diseased temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with an artificial joint. The TMJ connects the lower jaw to the skull and is essential for movements such as chewing, speaking, and opening the mouth. When this joint is affected by severe damage, pain, or dysfunction, TMJ replacement may be recommended to restore normal function and relieve discomfort.



TMJ replacement is usually considered in cases where other treatments such as medications, physiotherapy, or minor procedures have not provided relief. Conditions such as advanced arthritis, joint degeneration, trauma, ankylosis, or tumors affecting the joint may require this procedure. During the surgery, the damaged joint components are carefully removed and replaced with a specially designed artificial joint made from biocompatible materials. These implants are designed to mimic the natural movement of the jaw and provide stability and function. The procedure is performed with careful planning using advanced imaging and surgical techniques to ensure accurate placement and optimal results. After surgery, patients undergo a recovery period that may include physiotherapy and guided jaw exercises to regain normal movement. With proper care and follow-up, TMJ replacement can significantly reduce pain, improve jaw function, and enhance the patient’s ability to eat, speak, and perform daily activities comfortably. It is an effective solution for patients with severe TMJ disorders who require long-term relief and functional restoration.
