Abstract
The aim of this paper was to validate a previously described classification system for extended total joint replacements (eTJRs) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We engaged an expert panel to review 60 TMJ eTJR devices and classify them using the system, examining their responses for inter-rater agreement and concordance with the correct response as determined by the authors. Conger's kappa was 0.34 for the fossa (F) component sub-classification and 0.67 for the mandibular (M) component. A posthoc analysis showed improvements in inter-rater agreement for a modified three-tiered F sub-classification system which is suggested in a revised version of the TMJ eTJR classification system
