Articular Cartilage Restoration
Articular cartilage is a tough, elastic tissue that covers the ends of bones
in joints
and enables the bones to move smoothly over one another. However, when articular
cartilage is damaged through injury or a lifetime of use, it does not heal as
rapidly or effectively as other tissues in the body. Instead, the damage tends
to spread, allowing the bones to rub directly against each other and resulting
in pain and reduced mobility.
