What is Shoulder Joint Replacement?
Shoulder joint replacement (also known as shoulder arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure where the damaged parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with artificial components, called prostheses.
The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint. In a healthy shoulder, the “ball” (the top of the arm bone) fits perfectly into the “socket” (part of the shoulder blade). When arthritis or injury wears down the cartilage that cushions these bones, they rub together, causing severe pain and stiffness. Replacing these surfaces with medical-grade metal and plastic allows for smooth, pain-free movement once again.
