cemented implants

Cemented implants are a type of joint replacement where a special medical-grade cement is used to secure the artificial joint components directly to the surrounding bone. This cement acts like a strong adhesive, providing immediate stability and fixation. It’s commonly used in hip and knee replacements, especially for older patients or those with weaker bones. The cement allows for quick stabilization, helping the patient recover faster. Over time, the cement bonds securely with the bone, maintaining the joint’s function. This technique has been effectively used for many years to restore joint mobility and reduce pain.
