Total Joint Replacement Total joint replacement is a surgical procedure that replaces severely damaged joint cartilage with an artificial substitute of metal and plastic. An orthopedic surgeon will perform joint replacement surgery when all non-surgical treatments have failed to relieve pain or return function to your joint.
