Do you suffer from wrist pain due to osteoarthritis or snac or slac wrist? Many patients are unaware of all the treatment options available to them, many having post-operative limitations. Patients should feel comfortable with their post-operative expectations. For example, after a wrist fusion, you will not be able to bend your wrist or perform certain tasks. It is important to ask your surgeon the right questions, so you are receiving the appropriate surgical procedure suitable for your lifestyle. At Arthrosurface, we want the best outcomes for our patients, so we’ve put together a helpful list of questions for you to ask your surgeon.

What Makes Us Different
The WristMotion® Hemiarthroplasty Implant System restores mobility back to your wrist by recreating your natural anatomy. It is the only implant designed to create a new, mobile wrist joint by matching the shapes and contours of the patients’ existing joint surfaces.
There is a significant group of people with early joint disease and cartilage damage that have failed treatments. These people are younger, physically active and have lifestyles that don’t permit significant downtime. They are searching for Stay Active® Joint Replacement implants that are less invasive and preserve lifestyles. The surgical procedures for our joint preservation implant systems can be performed on an outpatient basis that allows a shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery!
Other benefits include:
- No activity restrictions
- Increased range of motion and reduced pain levels
- Implants fit to a patient’s joint size and shape
- The implants are placed into the bone rather than on top, leaving the natural anatomy of the joint intact
