Better Range of Motion

BFH^® Technology
If you are facing hip replacement, your surgeon will consider many factors including your age and activity level in order to choose the right implant for you. BFH^® Technology from Wright allows superior range of motion - a real benefit for active patients.

One of the most common and problematic complications, post-operatively, for hip replacements is hip dislocation. With an active patient, this can be a very real concern as they are bound to put a lot of stress on the joint and test its limits.

Wright's BFH^® Hip (available in with multiple surface bearing options) was specifically designed to reduce the risk of dislocation because its larger size more closely mimics the body's natural anatomy than traditional hip implants.

In traditional hip replacement surgery, the diseased hip's femoral head is removed and replaced with an implant that is smaller in size than the normal anatomy. This smaller sized implant, traditionally made of metal and plastic, can lead to problems associated with hip dislocation.

In contrast, Wright has designed the BFH^® and BCH^® Hip implants with larger femoral heads that significantly reduce the chance of post-operative dislocation, while dramatically increasing range of motion.

BFH^® Technology allows patients to potentially achieve a 172° range of motion, after surgery, versus the 155° range that traditional implants offer.* This extra range of motion can make a big difference to those trying to return to a normal, active life.
