The traditional implant on the left is visibly larger and thicker, requiring a wider exposure and more bone surface for fixation compared with the modern design
The traditional driver is bulkier with a large handle for manual torque, while the modern driver is slim and ergonomically designed for controlled, single-surgeon insertion
Traditional screws are larger, tapered, and coarse-threaded for compressive purchase, whereas the modern system uses a single smaller, fine-threaded screw for streamlined fixation
Both trays include an Instructions for Use card, but the traditional card specifies a larger multi-screw technique while the modern card outlines a simplified single-screw protocol
The traditional construct occupies a broader footprint with multiple screw sites and a wider plate, while the modern construct has a minimal footprint designed to preserve more adjacent anatomy
