Finite element analysis of patient-specific TMJ implants to replace bilateral joints with simultaneous correction of facial deformity

Introduction: Finite element analysis (FEA) is a method to mimic the biomechanical behaviour of an object under various loading scenarios, and may be used during virtual planning of the TMJ prosthesis. Here we present an interesting case report where FEA was done to biomechanically evaluate patient...
