Common myths about Artificial Disk Replacement (ADR) surgery debunked!✨

Living with chronic back pain is exhausting, but myths about Artificial Disk Replacement (ADR) often hold people back from exploring this motion-preserving option. Let’s set the record straight:

❌ Myth: ADR is the same as spinal fusion
✅ Reality: ADR replaces the damaged disc with a prosthetic that allows natural movement.

❌ Myth: Disks don’t last long
✅ Reality: Modern ADR implants are built to last—with strong, durable materials and excellent long-term results.

❌ Myth: Only older adults need Artificial Disk Replacement
✅ Reality: ADR is often best suited for younger or middle-aged patients with good bone quality and pain from one or two degenerative discs.
