Total Hip Replacement
Total hip replacement (THR) is a very common and safe procedure to treat severe arthritis. The surgery substitutes damaged bone and cartilage of the joint with polyethylene or ceramic and metallic components. All materials used for hip arthroplasty are completely biocompatible.
Benefits of total hip replacement include:
- Reduction in hip pain – The pain will be rapidly and dramatically reduced and usually eliminated over time.
- Recovery of mobility – Your hip will function with less effort, and you will regain your original mobility.
- Improvement in quality of life – Your everyday activities and your social life will no longer be limited by hip pain and reduced mobility.

Total Knee Replacement
Total knee replacement (TKR) is a minimally-invasive surgical operation that involves replacing a damaged, worn, or diseased knee with biocompatible plastic and metallic components. The artificial joint replaces the cartilage function.
Benefits of total knee replacement include:
- Pain relief – The surgery significantly reduces — if not entirely eliminates — pain in the knee.
- Mobility restoration – Following the surgery, the patient will experience improved muscle strength and improved alignment of deformed joints.
- Better quality of life – Patients are able to resume their normal daily activities, such as light exercise, shopping, and climbing stairs.
