Abstract:

Deteriorate of prosthesis can be defined as the mechanical wear of the components moving on each other. It occur the change of the rise and the shape of the component. This load can be depend on the extent of the load, the material of the component, the thickness of the polyethylene layer, the smoothness of the machining, the hardness of the surface of the head component and also on the implantation method. A 26-28 mm head diameter can be optimal and the upper level of the allowable polyethylene wear per year is 0.1 mm. It is not easy to determinate the usability of the different types [.
