Re: What Implant Manufacturer Have You And Your Doctor Considered?
Depuy Metal on Metal. Modular type, so the cup & ball can be easily changed to better materials should one arise, or replacement if worn.
It's tuneable! Mary Lou Retton got this type.

Re: What Implant Manufacturer Have You And Your Doctor Consi
I have a Biomet Taperloc - My surgeon said they usually test range of motion before closing and he was unable to dislocate the joint while I was on the table. I had NO restrictions coming out of surgery and was putting my socks on unassisted within one week.
