When Total Knee Replacement Becomes the Right Treatment Choice
Total knee replacement helps people with advanced arthritis regain smooth, stable movement.
You replace the damaged joint surfaces with medical-grade implants that support pain-free walking and bending.
​
What it involves
The surgeon removes worn cartilage from the thigh bone, shin bone, and underside of the kneecap. A metal implant covers each bone end. A high-density spacer fits between them. This creates a steady, low-friction joint. Surgeons call this total knee arthroplasty.
How the procedure works
• A measured incision exposes the joint
• Precision tools prepare bone surfaces
• Implants align with the mechanical axis of the leg
• A smooth insert supports gliding movement
• The surgeon checks balance, stability, and tracking before closing the incision
Recovery
You stand and walk with support within hours of surgery. Guided physiotherapy builds strength and mobility. Swelling reduces with routine care. Most people resume daily activities in a steady and predictable timeline.
