Advanced Cervical and Lumbar Disc Replacement with prodisc® Technology Offers Patients a Modern Alternative to Spinal Fusion

Morristown, NJFebruary 24, 2026 Patients suffering from chronic neck or lower back pain now have access to one of New Jersey’s leading experts in motion-preserving spine surgery. Dr. George Naseef of The Advanced Spine Center is rapidly becoming recognized as one of the premier specialists in cervical and lumbar disc replacement, offering advanced, evidence-based solutions designed to relieve pain while preserving natural movement.

Unlike traditional spinal fusion, which permanently restricts motion at the treated level, disc replacement is intended to maintain mobility, flexibility, and alignment of the spine. Dr. Naseef is an experienced user of Centinel Spine’s prodisc® technology, one of the most trusted and clinically proven artificial disc systems available today for both the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) spine.

“Motion matters,” said Dr. Naseef. “Our goal is not only to relieve pain, but to preserve the way the spine is designed to move, preserve range of motion, and decrease the adjacent segment disease associated with fusions. Disc replacement may offer an effective alternative to fusion while supporting long term-function, for appropriately selected patients”

Why Motion Preservation Matters

Cervical and lumbar disc replacement is designed for patients with degenerative disc disease who have not found relief through conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medication, or injections.  Advantages of disc replacement include:

  • Preservation of natural spinal motion
  • Reduced stress on adjacent spinal levels
  • A quicker return to daily activities
  • Long-term durability supported by clinical research

The prodisc® Advantage

Dr. Naseef utilizes Centinel Spine’s prodisc® family of artificial discs, a globally used technology supported by decades of clinical data.  prodisc® devices are engineered to replicate natural spinal motion while providing stability and long-term performance.

“Centinel Spine’s prodisc® technology allows us to tailor treatment based on each patient’s anatomy and condition,” Dr. Naseef added. “It’s a powerful tool in delivering high-quality, motion-preserving care.”

“At The Advanced Spine Center, patients are never rushed into surgery,” Dr. Naseef emphasized. “We believe in educating patients, discussing all options, and identifying whether disc replacement is truly the right solution for them.”
