3D-printed porous polymer interbody implants (fully interconnected porosity)
Additively manufactured porous polymer interbody implants featuring fully interconnected porosity and nanoscale hydroxyapatite-based surface treatment; available in multiple footprints, heights and lordotic options for cervical and lumbar approaches and offered alongside machined titanium and plasma-coated polymer variants.
Titanium interbody implants and PEEK implants with plasma-spray titanium coating
Machined titanium interbody implants with micro-roughness surface texturing and PEEK interbody implants with titanium plasma-spray coatings to improve implant contact, fixation, and radiographic endplate visualization; provided in multiple footprints and lordotic geometries.
Posterior fixation systems and minimally invasive pedicle screw systems
Posterior fixation offerings including polyaxial and reduction pedicle screws, percutaneous minimally invasive screw and rod systems, rods, crosslinks, variable-length crosslinks, offset connectors compatible with standard rod diameters, and ergonomic instrumentation optimized for streamlined rod capture.
Sacroiliac joint fusion implants (fenestrated, cannulated screws)
Cannulated, fenestrated titanium screws for sacroiliac joint fusion designed to permit graft packing and local bone distribution during insertion; available in multiple diameters and lengths with optional kinetic or static stabilization caps.
Laminoplasty plates, spacers and assembly hardware
Laminoplasty system comprising low-profile plates (spacer, hook, hinge), spacers in titanium or polymer with graft cavities, and compatible self-tapping screws; instrumentation and color-coding provided to support intraoperative identification and assembly.
Cervical plate and screw systems (anterior and midline)
Low-profile anterior and midline cervical plates with one-step locking mechanisms and compatible screw systems (self-drilling/self-tapping, fixed and variable screw options) designed to support multi-level constructs and simplified instrumentation.
