It is offered in a range of plate sizes with a variety of lengths and accommodates both locking and non-locking screws, corresponding to the plate size.

The system uses sterile implants and single-use tools to reduce the risk of contamination and optimise efficiency during the procedure.

Additionally, JuniOrtho Plating System is complemented by a pre-operative planning software option that streamlines the implant selection prior to the surgical procedure.

This enables the surgeon to accurately plan the osteotomy position to visualise the implant in relation to the anatomy. It also helps them to select the precise size of the device to ensure the best fit and optimal positioning for the patient’s body.
