Who We Are

About Us

At Amedica, we have the scientific and manufacturing expertise to produce medical grade silicon nitride - a patented platform technology for use in a variety of medical applications. Silicon nitride is bioactive and compatible across all imaging modalities, offering surgeons and patients a preferable alternative to commonly used materials. We are the only FDA registered and ISO 13485 certified silicon nitride medical device manufacturing facility in the world.

Our Proprietary Products

In 2008, we received 510(k) clearance from the FDA for the first silicon nitride spinal fusion device. Our Valeo^® interbody fusion devices, Preference^TM pedicle screw system, and product development pipeline offer a wide variety of solutions for spinal procedures.

Our Vision

We are passionate about leveraging our advanced biomaterial expertise to create innovative healthcare solutions that improve patient quality of life.
