Method for the production of a temporomandibular joint endoprosthesis, skull prosthesis or body part prosthesis, in which, as first step, an image of the prosthesis to be produced is created, subsequently by a computerized machining process, a size-adapted prosthetic blank is made from a ceramic blank, using said image and in a downstream thermal treatment the prosthetic blank is transformed into the intended temporomandibular joint endoprosthesis, skull prosthesis or body part prosthesis and temporomandibular joint endoprosthesis. |
