The biggest advantage of personalized TMJ implants is precision. Standard implants require significant intraoperative adjustments, which increases the procedure's complexity and introduces variability. Personalized implants, on the other hand, are designed to match the patient’s anatomy exactly. This eliminates the guesswork during surgery and ensures better outcomes.

Personalization leads to an improved fit and, therefore, improved precision.

Once you have used the titanium guides, you will never go back. You get the guides perfectly fitting for mandible SSO, genoplasty, the condylar resection on left side, and the preparation of the fossa on the left side.

The foremost advantage lies in the impeccable fit of the implant — it fits perfectly. This leads to enhanced stability. Additionally, this approach reduces operation time, which enables us to streamline procedures and achieve efficient outcomes.
