Studies in which TJR was compared with other surgical or non-surgical methods were searched and analyzed. Data extraction and quality assessments were performed by at least two investigators independently. Risk of bias was assessed with the ROBINS-I-tool. Certainty of evidence was assessed with GRADE.\nResults: A total of 2,891 studies were identified in the search. One study met the criteria with comparison of TJR with a control group consisting of patients treated with another surgical method, namely, interpositional arthroplasty. The study investigated the outcome variables such as pain reduction and improvement in mouth opening and had a moderate risk of bias. No significant difference between the groups was found after regression analysis. Quality of life assessment was not the objective of this study. No meta-analysis could be performed from this literature search, for obvious reasons.\nConclusion: TMJ reconstruction with alloplastic prostheses is rapidly evolving, with new systems continually entering the market. This review highlights the urgent need for further scientific efforts, including well-designed trials capable of demonstrating the comparative effectiveness of alloplastic TJR against other treatment modalities, ideally randomized trials with controls.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2340\/aos.v84.43641","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,20]],"date-time":"2025-05-20T11:47:24Z","timestamp":1747741644000},"page":"258-265","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Effects of total temporomandibular joint replacement with alloplastic prosthesis \u2013 a systematic review"],"prefix":"10.2340","volume":"84","author":[{"given":"P\u00e4r","family":"Morin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jani","family":"Talvilahti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mattias","family":"Ulmner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Per","family":"Alstergren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eva","family":"Nordendahl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aron Naimi-","family":"Akbar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1183","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"112368","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Locker D, Slade G.
