Understanding Shoulder Replacement

Effective for severe arthritis, rotator cuff tear arthropathy, shoulder stiffness, and chronic pain that does not improve with treatment.

Why does the Shoulder Replacement deteriorate?

The shoulder joint deteriorates due to osteoarthritis, massive rotator cuff tears, aging, rheumatoid arthritis, previous fractures, or chronic inflammation. When cartilage wears away, shoulder motion becomes painful and limited.

How does Shoulder Replacement help?

Shoulder Replacement removes the damaged ball-and-socket surfaces and replaces them with smooth artificial components. This restores arm movement, reduces pain, and improves daily activities like lifting, dressing, and sleeping comfortably.

Benefits of Modern TKR Techniques:

Significant pain relief
Improved shoulder motion and flexibility
Better sleep without shoulder discomfort
Restored ability to lift and rotate the arm
Advanced implants for long-lasting results
Effective for rotator cuff tear arthropathy
Faster recovery with minimally invasive techniques

Severe shoulder pain worse at night or at rest
