Patient-Specific Models:
Anatomy of a Knee
What are Different Types of Custom Made Implants?
There are several types of knee implants, but our 3D printed custom made implants stand out due to their tailored design. These implants can be categorized into:
Partial Knee Implants
Replace only the damaged compartment of the knee.
Total Knee Implants
Replace the entire knee joint, including the femur, tibia, and patella.
How 3D Printing Technology Work?
To create a custom-fit implant for your knee, we ensure that the material:
- Is similar to human cartilage
- Is strong and durable for long-lasting performance
- Has the necessary elasticity for movement
- Have shock-absorbing properties
Scanning and Modeling:
The process of making a 3D implant begins with using a 3D scanner and advanced modeling software. This technology allows us to create a highly detailed digital model of your knee, customized specifically to your anatomy.
3D Printing:
Surgical Procedure:
- The patient is given either local or general anesthesia for a pain-free experience.
- A small incision is made at the kneecap, removing any damaged joint surfaces. The custom 3D printed implant is then securely positioned, setting the foundation for a smooth recovery.
Post-Surgery Care and Recovery:
After your knee surgery, our team will closely monitor your recovery. You need to stay in the clinic for a few days to ensure proper healing.
During this time:
- You will receive guidance on exercises and activities that help them regain mobility.
- We focus on preventing blood clots, managing swelling, and avoiding infections.
Once at home, patients should continue their prescribed exercises regularly. Within 3 to 6 weeks, you can return to your normal routines, supported by our dedicated team throughout the journey.

FAQs about 3D Printed Knee Replacement in Dubai
The process begins with imaging studies (like MRIs or CT scans) to create a detailed model of the knee. This model is used to design a custom implant, which is then manufactured using 3D printing technology. The surgery typically involves removing damaged cartilage and bone, followed by implanting the custom device.
While complications are rare, they can include infection, blood clots, implant failure, or misalignment of the implant.
Patients may need to provide medical history, imaging results, and any previous treatment records. A pre-operative consultation is also required to discuss health status and expectations for surgery.
