An implant insertion tool includes an outer shaft, an inner shaft received in the outer shaft, and two arms coupled to the outer shaft and the inner shaft. The inner shaft translates within the outer shaft and has angled ramps that slide within complementary angled ramps in the two arms. The arms engage an implant for insertion into a body. When the inner shaft translates along a longitudinal axis, it causes the angled ramps to slide against the complementary angled ramps in the arms such that the two arms move laterally relative to the longitudinal axis of the outer shaft to engage and disengage the implant.

Implant packaging cartridge and insertion tool

A packaging insert/cartridge for use with an implant having first and second components is provided. The packaging insert includes a main body, a snap fit latch extending proximally from the main body and a spacer extending distally from the main body and configured to be disposed between the first and second components of the implant. The snap fit latch is adapted to snap fit over a mating part of an implant inserter.
