Joint Replacement in North Dakota

The shoulder joint, renowned for its remarkable mobility, plays a pivotal role in our daily movements, but its constant use and exposure to considerable force make it susceptible to degeneration.

Shoulder replacement surgery becomes necessary when bone and cartilage in the shoulder region deteriorate due to factors like fractures, arthritis, or instability due to injury, resulting in pain, inflammation, and restricted mobility.

At our institution, our board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons specialize in a range of shoulder surgeries, including total shoulder replacement, reverse shoulder replacement, and revision procedures. Explore the comprehensive options available for shoulder joint replacement surgeries to address your specific needs and restore optimal shoulder function.

Hip replacement procedures rank as the second most common joint replacements conducted in the United States, closely following knee replacements.

Arthritis stands as the leading cause for worn hip joints necessitating replacement, although trauma or tumors may also prompt the procedure. Remarkably, around half of individuals requiring a hip replacement are age 65 or older.

Indications for hip replacement surgery include pain, stiffness, and difficulty standing on one leg for more than a minute, especially on the side with the problematic hip. Balance support may be necessary.

There are a variety of approaches to knee replacement. The one that is right for you will depend on the nature and extent of your problem.

At The Bone & Joint Center, our team of specialized orthopedic experts focuses on foot and ankle care, including performing ankle replacement surgeries, also referred to as total ankle arthroplasty. These procedures are designed to address damage resulting from conditions like arthritis or traumatic injuries, such as ankle fractures or dislocations.

By replacing the affected portions of the ankle joint with a prosthetic implant, we aim to restore optimal range of motion to the ankle. This not only alleviates pain and discomfort but also plays a crucial role in reducing the likelihood of arthritis affecting nearby joints, enhancing overall ankle function and quality of life.
