There are a wide range of benefits that can improve patient care and outcomes:

• Preserving healthy tissue and ligaments results in a more natural feeling knee compared with total knee replacement
• The procedure is less-invasive than traditional knee replacement resulting in:
  • Smaller incisions
  • Shorter recovery time
  • Reduced pain
  • Ability to treat knee osteoarthritis at an earlier stage
  • Easier recovery that total knee replacement
  • Longer wear and tear of implant
