The surgical replacement of a joint is known as arthroplasty. During surgery, your healthcare provider will remove a damaged joint and replace it with an artificial joint. The prosthetic joint could be made of metal, ceramic, or heavy-duty plastic (prosthesis). The replacement joint has the same appearance and moves in the same way as the original. Surgeons can replace joints in any part of your body, but the most common types of arthroplasty are hip and knee replacements. The vast majority of people who receive this treatment will need total joint replacement. Only a limited percentage of people are candidates for partial joint replacement. This treatment just restores the joint's damaged component. The time it takes for an arthroplasty to heal varies. It depends on your age and lifestyle, as well as the treatment and joint replacement you received.
