The recent progress in understanding the biomedical basis for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) therapy as well as in computer and imaging technologies is beginning to provide novel insights into TMJ reconstruction, rational diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. The aim of the study is to demonstrate patienеs therapy including 1 year recall. This contribution deals with 3D analysis of the mathematical and computer modeling of biomechanics of the jaw. Case report monitors step by step treatment plan, preprosthetic surgery, mandibular reconstruction and process of healing. 3D-CT was used to monitor the patient with dental cysts. The mathematical and computer TMJ models analysis using overlapping of 3D-CT before and after 1 year therapy shows the stability of TMJ partial prosthesis reconstruction.
