| Abstract: | The article presents a study that examines the impact of the mandible geometry on deformation distribution of digital models computed tomography (CT) SCAN and Scan process. It analyzes the replacement of the mandibular condyle using different temporomandibular joint (TMJ) prosthesis elements. The study reveals the differences in the behaviour of the same implant on different mandible geometries. |
