Total Hip
The hip is a ball and socket joint. A hip replacement resurfaces the joint by substituting the socket with a new metal and plastic surface and by replacing the worn out ball with a new metal ball fit together and result in a new smooth, very low friction ball and socket joint.
Total Knee
Knee replacement is better described as a resurfacing surgery. This could be equated to putting new lining on the brakes of your car as opposed to throwing the brakes away and putting new brakes in its place.
