Orthopedists use a variety of orthopedic prosthetic implants to replace missing bones or joints, or to provide support to a damaged bone. Most commonly, orthopedists use prostheses for hips and knees, allowing the patients to regain full range of movement, pain-free, in a relatively short amount of time. In some cases, the prosthetic material can be combined with healthy bone to replace damaged or diseased bone, or prostheses can replace certain portions of a joint bone entirely.
