A prosthetic implant comprises an articular surface and a bone contacting surface. The articular surface has a first concavity extending along a first curved axis and the bone contacting surface has a convexity extending along a second curved axis. Geometric relationships between the concavity of the articular surface and convexity of the bone contacting surface are described. A resulting feature of this implant is a bone contacting surface including both planar and non-planar geometries. Instrumentation and a method for the preparation of the non-planar bone surface are also described.
