Artificial Disc Replacement — Modern Neck and Back Surgery for Pain-Free Movement

At The Spine Clinic, we perform disc replacement surgery using advanced, motion-preserving implants. This minimally invasive procedure helps patients with worn or herniated discs regain natural spine movement while achieving sustainable back pain relief and avoiding spinal fusion.

What is Disc Replacement Surgery?

Disc replacement surgery is a motion-preserving procedure where a damaged spinal disc is removed and replaced with an artificial disc replacement. Unlike spinal fusion, which limits movement, this advanced neck and back surgery maintains the spine’s natural flexibility while relieving nerve pressure and chronic pain.

Natural motion preservation
Restores normal spine mobility, unlike fusion surgery which restricts motion.
Effective pain relief
Relieves nerve compression and eliminates disc-related pain.
Quick recovery
Minimally invasive approach reduces hospital stay and downtime.

Who benefits from this procedure?

Ideal candidates include patients with chronic neck or lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease or herniated discs who wish to preserve motion instead of undergoing spinal fusion.

How the procedure works

Diagnosis: MRI confirms disc degeneration or nerve compression.

Removal: The damaged disc is carefully removed.

Insertion: A high-grade artificial disc implant is placed to restore alignment.

Recovery: Early movement is encouraged; most patients return to normal activities within weeks.

Advantages over traditional fusion surgery

Preserves natural spinal motion

Reduces adjacent segment degeneration

Faster rehabilitation and less post-operative stiffness

Ideal for active individuals seeking long-term mobility

Is artificial disc replacement safe?
Yes. The procedure is performed under advanced imaging and strict sterile conditions, using FDA-approved implants with excellent long-term results.
What’s the recovery time?
Most patients return to light activities within 2–3 weeks and resume full function within 4–6 weeks, depending on individual healing.
Will I lose motion in my spine?
No — the goal of disc replacement surgery is to maintain motion, unlike fusion which eliminates it.
