3DKnee System™

Dr. Buch has partnered with Encore Medical Corporation to bring you the 3DKnee™, the first knee implant specifically engineered to accommodate the important changes in contact, movement, and pressure that occur in the knee joint after total knee replacement. Not only does the 3DKnee™ provide a wider range of motion and greater stability than other knee prostheses, its revolutionary design also minimizes the stresses that have traditionally led to premature deterioration of most available implants. With more than a decade of research results, the 3DKnee™ has a longer life expectancy than other devices, making it ideal for younger patients. To find out if the 3DKnee™ is the right solution for you, contact Dr. Buch’s office today to schedule a consultation.
