Specialized Implants for Stabilization
Another standout feature of cervical fusion is the use of specialized implants, including screws, rods, and plates, which stabilize the cervical spine. These implants are designed to mimic the natural structure of the spine, allowing for a more seamless integration and promoting optimal healing. The importance of these implants lies in their ability to maintain spinal alignment while the fusion takes place, leading to a stronger, more stable spine and a reduced risk of further injury.
