Cementless Stem

The stem is implanted into your femur (thigh bone). These rely on a tight fit initially to give ?press-fit? stability but in the longer term rely on bone growing into or onto the prosthesis to hold it in place.  Both cemented and cementless systems can be very successful and your surgeon will choose whichever system he is most comfortable with using.

Cementless Cup

The cup is implanted into your acetabulum (socket). These also rely on a tight fit initially. Cementless cups are made up of two parts. The shell, which is made of metal and an insert that sites inside of the shell. Inserts can be made from plastic, ceramic or metal. Your surgeon will decide which is best for you depending your activity and lifestyle.
