Total Joint Replacement Q&A
What is total joint replacement?
Total joint replacement refers to surgical procedures that remove damaged joints and replace them with prosthetic parts. The goal of total joint replacement is to alleviate joint pain and disability and restore joint function and quality of life.

Orthopaedic Institute of Dayton is the only orthopedic practice in Dayton that can do all surgery center authorizations at one site. There’s no need to go to multiple facilities or providers when you need total joint replacement. The practice provides every pre-surgical test and screening.
Am I a candidate for total joint replacement?
The board-certified orthopedic surgeons at Orthopaedic Institute of Dayton specialize in total joint replacement. However, they never recommend surgery as the first treatment for your joint pain.
They may consider you a candidate for total joint replacement if you have joint pain from osteoarthritis or joint damage that no longer responds to conservative treatments like oral medications, joint injections, or physical therapy.
Though joint damage and pain are major factors in deciding whether you’re a candidate for total joint replacement, the surgeons also take into consideration your support systems.
Total joint replacement is a major surgery that requires a lengthy recovery with activity modifications and rehabilitation. For surgical success, you need to have at-home support to help you manage your daily needs, especially during those first few days following your total joint replacement surgery.
What are the types of total joint replacement procedures?
