Amber Implants
TREAT the Fracture.
RESTORE the Anatomy.
Amber Implants is redefining vertebral fracture treatment with a minimally invasive reconstruction platform designed to restore vertebral body anatomy, provide three-column support, and enable targeted stabilization when clinically needed.
Vertebral Fractures
Vertebral Compression Fracture
One of the more commonly occurring fracture types is a vertebral compression fracture (VCF). VCFs are cracks in the vertebral body that often occur due to osteoporosis and low bone density in older patients. However, they can also be caused by trauma, tumors, or other bone diseases.
Burst Fracture
A traumatic spinal injury in which a vertebra breaks into multiple pieces due to a high-energy axial load is called a burst fracture. Burst fractures are caused by a fall from height, a car accident, or high-impact sports injury.
Current treatments often force a compromise:
minimally invasive but structurally incomplete, or effective but highly invasive.
Amber bridges this gap through an integrated system built around anatomic restoration, biomechanical integrity, and a defined clinical lane.
global
health
burden
Vertebral fractures are a growing health burden, with an estimated 5.4 million people affected worldwide in 2021 and approximately 7.5 million new cases annually.¹
no optimal
treatment
65% of vertebral fracture patients experience serious side effects with existing treatments. Some of these effects are caused by the injection of PMMA bone cement into the vertebra.2
high
morbidity
Higher morbidity levels were reported in patients treated with non-surgical VCF methods when compared to patients that are treated surgically.3
Symptoms
Back pain
Limited mobility
Height loss
