Joint Replacement
While the symptoms of joint pain may be tolerated with medications and lifestyle adjustments, there may come a time when surgical treatment is necessary. Total joint replacement surgery, also called arthroplasty, removes the damaged portion of the joint and replaces it with artificial implants. For nearly 50 years, joint replacement procedures have decreased pain and restored function to those suffering from pain. New designs, materials, technologies, and techniques in joint replacement continue to evolve.
