With a total joint replacement, parts of an injured or arthritic joint are surgically removed and replaced with a prosthesis composed of metal, plastic, or ceramic materials. The prosthesis is designed to move in a manner akin to a normal, healthy joint. Although hip and knee replacements are the most common joint replacements, other joints, including the elbow, shoulder, wrist, ankle, and knee, can also be surgically replaced. A joint is created where the ends of two or more bones meet. There are many different types of joints in the body. For example, the knee joint is called a "hinge" joint because it can bend and straighten like a hinged door. The hip and shoulder joints are "ball-and-socket" joints.
