Native Root - Introducing Soft Button Fixation
PROVIDENCE, RI
At Native Orthopaedics, everything starts with our guiding principles: preserve what’s native. Simplify the complex. And where possible—leave no trace.
Our newest fixation technology is the cleanest expression of that philosophy yet—zero metal, near-zero prominence, zero assembly, and nothing left behind that doesn’t belong.
The revolution continues.
The Simplest Root System, Period.
A simple principle drives the Native soft button: leave no trace. Zero metal, low prominence, and the same strength and simplicity—no assembly required.
✓ Zero Assembly
✓ Zero Metal
✓ Near-Zero Prominence
✓ 100% Cortical Fixation
Why Soft Button Fixation Matters?
Meniscal root repair is fundamentally about restoring native biomechanics while minimizing disruption to the joint. As the field continues to advance, fixation options should do the same—supporting both surgical confidence and long-term knee preservation.
The Native soft button fixation was developed with that balance in mind. By anchoring securely at the cortex with a low-profile, zero-metal design, it offers a clear, intuitive fixation experience that aligns with how sports medicine surgeons assess stability—in real time, during the procedure.
Surgeons can visualize the repair reducing to bone, confirm cortical seating, and complete fixation with confidence—without adding complexity to their workflow.

The goal of knee preservation is simple: restore function while leaving as little behind as possible.
The Native soft button reflects that philosophy. With zero metal and near-zero prominence, it minimizes implant footprint while maintaining fixation strength—supporting a biologic repair environment that respects native anatomy.
Where possible, it leaves no trace.
-
Native Root has always been built around thoughtful design, reproducible technique, and surgeon choice. The soft button fixation expands that platform—offering an additional fixation option that integrates seamlessly into the Native Root system.
It reinforces what surgeons already value about Native Root: simplicity, control, and confidence—while continuing to raise the bar for meniscal root repair.
