Hip replacement
Hip replacements are some of the most common forms of joint replacement surgery, and utilize prosthetics to mimic healthy hips. Having been around for more than 125 years, according to the American Academy of Orthopedics, the procedure is performed more than 300,000 times every year in the U.S. alone.
New approaches in total hip surgery include anterior hip replacement. Advantages to utilizing this approach include:
- Faster recovery
- Fewer postoperative precautions and restrictions
- Less damage to major muscles
- Less post-operative pain

Joint replacement
Joint replacements become necessary after the protective cartilage cushion over the ends of your bones wears away, causing irritation, stiffness and pain.
When medication or physical therapy can no longer manage this pain, it may be time to consult an orthopedic surgeon. Joint replacement surgery removes damage in the joint by inserting a joint replica, helping to relieve pain, increase mobility and improve overall feeling.
Knee replacement
Knee replacement surgery has come a long way and depending on what you and your doctor decide, there are several options from total knee to partial knee replacement.
