Benefits
Exceptional service
Partner with local clinical engineers during planning for optimal outcomes. Collaborate consistently with an expert who considers your surgical preferences.
Proven clinical performance
One year post-surgery, patients show improved quality of life compared to pre-surgery, with a 100% success rate for TMJ systems one year after placement.
The highest quality standards
Crafted from premier materials (titanium alloy, UHMWPE for the temporal part, titanium alloy, and cobalt chrome for the mandibular part), the personalized implant is handled through certified segmentation, planning, and design software within our digital workflow.
Comprehensive portfolio
Seamlessly integrate Materialise TMJ Total Arthroplasty System with other Materialise Personalized Solutions for orthognathic, reconstructive, or trauma cases. Implant fixation employs 2.0 and 2.4 mm osteosynthesis screws from our comprehensive Materialise Standard+ Solutions.
Product highlights
The personalized implant
The personalized TMJ implant is comprised of two components made with premier materials:
1. Temporal component: This blends a titanium alloy base plate with a UHMWPE articulating fossa, securely joined using an anchor screw for an ideal fit.
2. Mandibular component: Pairing a titanium alloy mandibular plate with a cobalt-chrome condylar head, the connection is tapered and secure.
*Choice between 2.0 mm non-locking screws and 2.4 mm locking screws.
The guides
Predrilling and osteotomy guides made of titanium or polyamide guarantee the perfect preparation for the implant with a surgical splint for occlusion control and a TMJ trial implant for the temporal component.
