A ceramic total hip implant is ideal for younger, more active patients requiring total hip replacement. The Keramos Hip Replacement Implant utilizes alumina ceramic, one of the hardest materials on earth, to provide an extremely strong and smooth implant. 

Alumina Ceramic is composed of bio-inert material, causing no adverse tissue reactions.  Laboratory and clinical testing have shown alumina ceramic-on-alumina ceramic produces almost undetectable levels of wear when compared to traditional hip implants. 

Why is this important?  Reduced wear means an implant that lasts longer and sturdier than traditional hip replacements, giving hope to younger and more active patients suffering from Osteoarthritis.

Dr. Ferro is the most personable doctor I've ever come across. He takes the time to really listen. He made me feel so comfortable that I felt like I could ask him anything. He recommended a ceramic hip replacement that was done in October of 2005. The result has been such a relief that I don't even remember the pain - it's been just incredible!
