At the Florida Podiatric Medical Association (FPMA) SAM Conference, we sit down with OSSIO to discuss the future of bioabsorbable orthopedic implants and how next-generation implant platforms are changing patient care in foot and ankle surgery. OSSIO has developed an implant technology designed to outperform traditional biocomposites by incorporating higher mineral content and reduced polymer composition, allowing for improved integration and absorption into bone within 18–24 months.
