When you get a total knee replacement, what is the replacement made of?

A special hard plastic, that is duriable, safe and won't turn bad in your body!  It can last a lifetime, almost.

Go see your Doctor!  You could prevent a very painful knee replacement when you are older.

it is the type of knee that you need to worry about, ceramic seems to be the best so far.

I had Arthoscopy surgery back in Nov. I had a chipped bone and also had arthritis clean up. My knee still bothers me at times, are you in an immobilizer or anything to keep your leg straight? Or on crutches? Its going to take time for it to heal, knees have a long healing process.

Copper. Or if you mean electronics (not electrical), it would be silicon (otherwise known as sand).

Rubber. PVC, oil (special types), mica, porcelain, tufnell, glass, teflon, silica, shellac, special varnishes in motors, and hundreds of different tyes of plastics.

The problem with knee replacements is that they tend to develop complications such as loosening or infection earlier than total hip replacements. Do you have pain even at rest? If you do chances are, your knees are infected. If they hurt only when you move, then probably they are loose(bone, implant, and bone cement failed to bond securely). In case you have one or both problems, you may need surgery again if all other treatments fail. Good luck!

A bone matrix is made up of calcium phosphate salts while most other tissue matrices are made up of water and electrolites.

Probably silicone and iron.   It's a friggin big rock.   Hollow it out a bit; near the center the gravity is probably near earths gravity.

you have the wrong word or it is misspelled.   The meniscus  is a cartilage in the knee.

vulcanised rubber is made by heating the rubber with sulphur.(by Charles Goodyear-1838)\nproperties:even in very high temperatures,it will not loose its elasticity, when the force is taken away it resumes its usual shape, the increased ability to carry weight, doesn't corrode easily.\neg:tyres & tubes, corks, rubber pipes, raincoats, slippers\nhope that helped-cheers!

Surgary is most likely. You can eather change your knee to fit your lifestyle or change your lifestyle to fit your knee. Healing time is 1month+. It might not feel the same but most likely if you have surgary it will. Hope you fell better.

Silica; it's what makes glass, and ceramics have insulative properties. Other than that, it would be petroleum products such as plastics, and vinyls. Rubber comes from a plant.
