Opposite the insert interface 2411, the insert 2410 has a tibial articulation surface 2412 configured for engagement with the medial 2402 and lateral 2403 condyles on the femoral component 2401. The tibial articulation surface 2412 may include a medial tibial compartment 2413 and a lateral tibial compartment 2414. The medial tibial compartment 2413 may include a medial articulation surface 2420 for direct engagement with the medial condylar articulation surface 2404. The lateral tibial compartment 2414 may include a lateral articulation surface 2421 for direct engagement with the lateral condylar articulation surface 2405. The medial condylar articulation surface 2404 may engage with the medial articulation surface 2420 at a medial dwell point 2435. As used herein, "dwell point" refers to a point or an area where two articular surfaces contact each other during flexion and/or extension of a joint.
