The invention relates to an artificial temporal-mandibular joint replacement prosthesis. The replacement prosthesis comprises a glenoid fossa prosthesis and a mandible ramus prosthesis; the glenoid fossa prosthesis is made of supra polymer polyethylene polymer and comprises a tissue surface in contact with the glenoid fossa and a function surface in contact with the mandible ramus prosthesis, the tissue surface comprises a wing plate which is in contact with the zygomatic arch and is fixed to the zygomatic arch and a protrusion part in contact with the glenoid fossa, and the function surface comprises a sunken part in contact with the mandible ramus prosthesis and stopping plates arranged at the two ends of the sunken part; and the mandible ramus prosthesis comprises a condyloid process head and a mandible ramus fixing handle, the condyloid process head is cylindral and is in contact with the sunken part, the mandible ramus fixing handle is attached to the outer lateral face of the mandible ramus. By means of the artificial temporal-mandibular joint replacement prosthesis, the standard form artificial joint prosthesis is more suitable for the dissection appearance of the Chinese and is better attached to the jaw, complications in and after an operation are effectively reduced, the using effect of the standard form artificial joint prosthesis is improved, and the service life of the standard form artificial joint prosthesis is prolonged.
