Total Disc Replacement Surgery

Total disc replacement surgery (TDR) or artificial disc replacement (ADR) surgery or disc arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to treat degenerative disc disease of the lower back and neck.

Total disc replacement surgery is used to treat people with severe lower back pain and neck pain due to degenerative disc problems, like herniated or bulging discs.

In total disc replacement surgery, the surgeon removes damaged or diseased discs between two vertebrae in the spine and replaces them with artificial discs that mimic a natural disc.

Total disc replacement surgery is a surgical alternative to spinal fusion, but considered a relatively new surgery for very specific conditions.

Total disc replacement surgery is a surgical procedure performed by an orthopedic surgeon or neurosurgeon.
