[Titanium condylar abutment: the contribution of 3D computed tomography].

Various techniques have been described in the treatment of recurrent TMJ dislocations amongst which, joint arresters form a prominent part. We describe a new type of bio-integrable joint stop, custom made with 3D-CT help, which alleviates the two main drawbacks of the technique: lack of retention through insufficient extension, and secondary mobilization of the stop. Two cases are reported, amounting to four stops with satisfactory two years follow-up.
