Are you struggling with constant knee pain that limits walking, standing, or even sleeping? When arthritis becomes severe, everyday activities can feel exhausting and frustrating. If conservative treatments no longer provide relief, total knee replacement may offer a lasting solution.

Cristobal Beiro, MD, performs total knee replacement in Avenel, NJ, for patients with advanced knee arthritis and joint damage. As a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon with subspecialty certification in Sports Medicine, Dr. Beiro is highly experienced in complex knee surgery and modern joint replacement techniques.

What Is Total Knee Replacement?

Total knee replacement, also called total knee arthroplasty, involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the knee joint and replacing them with durable metal and plastic components.

The procedure is designed to:

  • Eliminate bone-on-bone friction
  • Restore alignment
  • Improve joint stability
  • Reduce chronic pain

It is most commonly recommended for advanced osteoarthritis, but may also be appropriate for rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis.

Who Is a Candidate?

You may be a candidate for total knee replacement if you have:

  • Severe knee pain that limits daily activities
  • Pain that persists at rest or at night
  • Significant stiffness or deformity
  • Failed non-surgical treatments, such as injections or therapy

A detailed evaluation and imaging studies help determine if full joint replacement is appropriate.

What Happens During Surgery?

During total knee replacement:

  • Damaged joint surfaces are carefully removed
  • The bone ends are reshaped
  • Metal and plastic implants are positioned
  • Stability and alignment are verified

Some patients may be candidates for robotic-assisted techniques to enhance surgical precision.

Recovery and Rehabilitation

Recovery is a gradual process focused on restoring motion and strength. Most patients:

  • Begin walking shortly after surgery
  • Participate in structured physical therapy
  • Experience steady improvement over several months

While many daily activities resume within weeks, full recovery can take 3–6 months.

Benefits of Total Knee Replacement

Total knee replacement can:

  • Significantly reduce chronic pain
  • Improve mobility and independence
  • Correct deformity
  • Improve quality of life

Modern implants are designed for durability, often lasting many years with proper care.
