How Does It Work?

After successful surgery, you will be eager to return to many of the activities you enjoy. Going for walks, golfing, boating, biking and playing with children are usually realistic expectations. Each of these activities is dependent upon your ability to comfortably bend and straighten your knee. The degree to which you can perform this movement is defined as your range of motion.

To provide for the highest degrees of flexion (bending), some implants require that a considerable amount of bone be removed to accommodate a thick implant. By contrast, Optetrak was designed to achieve a high degree of flexion while at the same time preserving as much of your natural bone as possible.
