If knee pain is limiting your daily activities—whether it’s climbing stairs, walking the dog, exercising, or simply enjoying time with family—you’re not alone. More than 600,000 Americans undergo knee replacement surgery each year, and that number continues to grow. One of the most exciting advancements now transforming knee replacement is robotic-assisted technology, which is helping patients achieve more precise results, faster recovery, and longer-lasting implants.
Robotic-assisted total knee replacement combines your surgeon’s expertise with highly advanced robotic technology to create a personalized surgical plan based on your unique anatomy. Using 3D digital modeling, the system guides accurate cutting and implant placement while your surgeon remains fully in control the entire time.
This isn’t a surgery performed by a robot—it’s a surgery performed by your orthopedic surgeon with robotic precision.
Before surgery, detailed digital imaging creates a 3D model of your knee, allowing your surgeon to tailor implant size, alignment, and positioning. This customization can lead to a more natural-feeling knee after recovery.
Robotic technology provides real-time feedback and guides exact bone cuts within fractions of a millimeter. Studies show that more precise alignment may result in:
Improved knee function
Less pain after surgery
Lower risk of implant complications
Longer implant lifespan
Because the robotic system helps protect soft tissues and preserves more healthy bone, many patients experience:
Smaller incisions
Less swelling and tissue trauma
Reduced need for pain medication
Faster return to normal activities
Proper alignment and ligament balancing can result in a knee that feels more stable and moves more like a natural joint, especially during bending, squatting, and climbing stairs.
Patients are reporting earlier mobility and improved confidence in their new knee—leading to overall higher satisfaction rates compared to traditional techniques.
Most patients who are candidates for traditional knee replacement can benefit from the robotic-assisted approach, especially those who:
Have chronic knee pain from arthritis
Have difficulty walking or performing daily activities
Have tried conservative treatments without relief
Want to return to active lifestyles more quickly
Robotic-assisted knee replacement combines innovation and surgical expertise to deliver safer, more precise, and more personalized care. For many patients, this technology offers a smoother recovery and a knee that feels more natural for longer.
If knee pain is slowing you down, you don’t have to live with it. Schedule a consultation to discuss whether a robotic-assisted total knee replacement is right for you.
