Here is what you need to know. 1. Ventura NanoMetalene has been commercially available since 2015. e implant's new sizes include additional lengths and oblique placement options with sagittally oriented lordosis. 2. e Ventura interbody devices fea- ture proprietary NanoMetalene surface technology: NanoMetalene is a sub-mi- cron layer of commercially pure tita- nium bonded at a molecular level to a PEEK implant using a low-temperature, high-energy process known as atomic fusion deposition. 3. NanoMetalene is designed to give im- plants a bone-friendly titanium surface on endplates and throughout gra ap- ertures while retaining the traditional benefits associated with PEEK implants, including biocompatibility, a modulus of elasticity similar to bone, and good radiographic visibility for postoperative imaging. 4.
