A mobile bearing prosthetic implant may include a fossa implant seated in the fossa cavity of the skull and secured to the zygomatic arch. The fossa implant may define a primary recess constructed and arranged to mimic the articular eminence of the temporal bone such that a floating bearing connected to a ramus implant may translate along the original path that the condylar head would take during movement of the jaw. The floating bearing may be constructed and arranged to move from the first jaw angle recess to the second jaw angle recess and is positionable therebetween such that a longitudinal axis of the floating bearing is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the floating bearing within the fossa implant.
