Tritanium Advanced Fixation Technology

3-D Technology

Tritanium is a three-dimensional surface on the acetabular cup that helps hold the implant into the bone. The new Tritanium technology was designed to resemble trabecular bone, a type of spongy bone tissue that provides skeletal support. Tritanium technology allows for bone to grow into the component¹ providing enhanced fixation.²

Tritanium Technology

Tritanium is made from high-quality, commercially pure Titanium. Studies have shown that it improves bone ingrowth when compared to other alloys.³ This technology may be especially beneficial for patients with low bone density and the 55% of Americans age 50 and older diagnosed with osteoporosis.⁴
