Bone implant having tether band

A method and devices for placing spinal implants including placing the implants completely within a spaced defined between adjacent vertebral bodies where the implants are supported by the cortical bone of the vertebral bodies. An insertion instrument places the implants in pairs with a variable-sized space placed in between. The implants are made of a biocompatible material and are particularly suited for anterior lumbar interbody fusion surgery. The spinal implants used to facilitate spinal fusion, correct deformities, stabilize and strengthen the spine.
