Cartiva

The Cartiva Toe Implant offers a modern solution for individuals suffering from hallux rigidus, or arthritis of the big toe joint. This innovative implant, made from a biocompatible hydrogel, mimics natural cartilage to replace the damaged surface in the metatarsophalangeal joint. Unlike traditional fusion surgery, Cartiva aims to relieve pain while preserving and even improving the toe’s natural range of motion. This less invasive procedure often allows for immediate weight-bearing, offering a potential pathway to renewed comfort and mobility for those affected by this common condition.
