Naturally Fitting Implants for Active Living

Cementless Knee Replacement

Cementless knee replacement uses a special kind of knee implant, also called press-fit implant, that is fixed to the bone without the use of bone cement. This reduces implant loosening and improves longevity.

Conformis Hip System

Hip Joint Replacement

The Conformis Hip System is the only primary total hip replacement system on the market designed with 3D imaging technology to provide a stem and acetabular cup size that matches each patient’s specific anatomy.
