Most replacements results from a wearing of the joints, known degenerative, arthritis, although other diseases, injury and aging also degenerate joints. The joint degeneration causes significant pain and immobility. Many people restrict their activities - from work, to sports, to hobbies.

Joint replacements change people's lives. The benefits are apparent almost immediately, notably within the first three months. Key benefits include: relief of pain, improvement in physical function, increase range of motion or mobility, increases social interaction, and improved overall health. The direct result - a more active, pain-free independent lifestyle.
