About this trial
Prospective data will be collected in approximately 200 patients treated with an TMJ replacement. Patients will be followed up according to the standard (routine) for up to 5 years after the treatment. Data collection will include underlying disease, treatment details, functional and patient reported outcomes (PRO)s and anticipated or procedure-related adverse events (i.e. complications).
This registry is designed to be able to assess the number of patients who refuse alloplastic total TMJ replacement. Therefore, the participating sites are asked to register all cases of refused TMJ replacements too.

Secondary outcomes
Demographics
Year of birth Gender Smoking
Comorbidities
Concomitant diseases will be assessed using the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). This score assesses the comorbidity level by considering both the number and severity of pre-defined comorbid conditions. It provides a weighted score of a patient's comorbidities which can be used to predict mortality rates
Refusal of alloplastic total TMJ replacement surgery
For patients who require alloplastic total TMJ replacement but refuse surgery, the reason(s) for refusal will be collected.
