The generation of customised TMJs according to individuals\u2019 dental anatomy is needed. Currently, the implants available on the market lack consideration of the patient\u2019s dental anatomy. This leads to the creation of an imbalance in the reaction forces on both ends of the TMJ. This requires a slight structural change in the design parameters to give a solution. The purpose of this study is to propose a new design that includes the geometry and materials for a TMJ implant. Stress analysis was carried out on the TMJ to balance the reaction forces at both TMJ ends. A static analysis was performed using ANSYS Workbench, to compare the results of two customised designs of TMJ implants, in order to better balance the reaction forces at both ends. The model in the study showed that the reaction forces for both the patient-specific TMJ implants were nearly balanced. The reaction forces were better balanced, and almost equivalent to the intact conditions. The stresses in the mandible were more uniformly distributed in the customised design of the TMJ implant. The two types of design showed that the custom design took up less space in the patient\u2019s region of surgery, making it a better option compared to a stock TMJ implant. The custom implant would allow faster patient rehabilitation, as the reaction forces would be close to those in intact conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/mi14081646","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,21]],"date-time":"2023-08-21T01:38:31Z","timestamp":1692581911000},"page":"1646","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Customised Implant for Temporomandibular Joint: New Technique to Design and Stress Analysis to Balance the Loading at Both Ends"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7964-1123","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anubhav","family":"Tiwari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Dynamics and Vibration Lab, Discipline of Mechanical Engineering, PDPM Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design & Manufacturing, Jabalpur, Dumna Airport Road, Jabalpur 482005, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8076-8084","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ishfaq A.","family":"Ahmed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Dynamics and Vibration Lab, Discipline of Mechanical Engineering, PDPM Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design & Manufacturing, Jabalpur, Dumna Airport Road, Jabalpur 482005, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2337-7076","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vijay Kumar","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Machine Dynamics and Vibration Lab, Discipline of Mechanical Engineering, PDPM Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design & Manufacturing, Jabalpur, Dumna Airport Road, Jabalpur 482005, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5176-1470","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rakesh Kumar","family":"Haldkar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"I.
