Abstract
Giannakopoulos et al have reported their results after total temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthroplasty with the Biomet Microfixation TMJ Replacement System in a diagnostically diverse group of 288 patients. They have reported statistically significant improvements in pain, interference with eating, and vertical opening 3 years after joint replacement. Given the controversy and criticism surrounding TMJ replacement, by showing the biomechanical integrity of 1 of a limited number of total joint systems, this report is a valuable contribution to the literature on total TMJ arthroplasty systems.
