Osseointegration is an emerging technology involving direct connection of prosthetic equipment to the body through a bony implant, avoiding challenges associated with a traditional socket interface. Our dedicated team will collaborate with your healthcare providers to address issues related to movement, mobility, and cognition. Through personalised interventions grounded in high-quality research, we offer services such as biomechanical assessments to find the right solution for you.
Osseointegration, while offering benefits, involves risks. Our team is here to support you with pre-surgical consultations to determine if it’s the right long-term option. We continue to provide ongoing support, including scheduled maintenance and component replacement, ensuring your well-being throughout the osseointegration journey.
The shift to osseointegration is a significant decision and requires assessment from many disciplines. This would usually consider health factors, functional ability, cognition and cleanliness. The goal of osseointegration would be to improve comfort and function and is often a pathway selected by people who have ongoing difficulty with traditional socket technologies.
