Artificial Disc Replacement in Texas

Artificial Disc Replacement Clinic in Beaumont & Houston, TX

Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR) is an innovative surgical treatment that offers relief to patients suffering from chronic back or neck pain caused by degenerative disc disease or other spinal conditions. At Spine Associates, our team of experienced spine specialists is dedicated to providing advanced care and personalized treatment plans to help patients regain mobility and improve their quality of life.

Am I a Candidate for Artificial Disc Replacement Surgery?

Candidates for artificial disc replacement are typically individuals who have not found relief through non-surgical treatments such as physical therapy, medication, or spinal injections. Ideal candidates are those with specific spinal conditions, including degenerative disc disease and herniated discs, who do not have significant spinal instability or advanced osteoporosis. Our spine specialists conduct a thorough evaluation, including imaging tests and a detailed medical history, to determine if ADR is the best treatment option.

What Are the Benefits of Artificial Disc Replacement?

Artificial Disc Replacement offers several benefits, including pain relief, improved spinal mobility, and a quicker return to daily activities than traditional fusion surgery. Because ADR maintains the natural spine motion, patients often experience less stress on adjacent discs, reducing the likelihood of future spinal problems. At Spine Associates, we use the latest surgical techniques and advanced technologies to enhance patient outcomes.

What to Expect During and After Artificial Disc Replacement Surgery?

During Artificial Disc Replacement surgery, our experienced spine surgeons make a small incision to access the affected spinal area. The damaged disc is carefully removed, and the artificial disc is implanted. The entire procedure is designed to minimize tissue disruption and promote a quicker recovery.

After surgery, most patients experience a significant reduction in pain and improved mobility. Recovery times vary, but many individuals can resume light activities within a few weeks and return to regular routines within a few months. Our team provides comprehensive post-operative care, including physical therapy and follow-up appointments, to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
