Abstract
A method of forming a composite titanium body for use in forming spinal implant interbodies includes selecting a metal alloy body, carving out a top portion and a bottom portion from the metal alloy body, and bonding a porous material to the carved-out top and bottom portions. Multiple pieces may be cut from the composite titanium body, each having a front face formed of the metal alloy, top and bottom portions formed of the porous material, and with a medial portion of the metal alloy extending from the front face to the back. Methods and devices for spinal interbodies having locking mechanisms to prevent bone screw back-out are also described.
