One such implant includes a bone plate comprising a radiolucent material having at least one aperture. The implant includes a fastener comprising a radiolucent material adapted to extend through the aperture. The fastener has a distal end and a proximal end, with at least a portion of the proximal end comprising a radiopaque material. A fastener lock is included, adapted to engage the fastener proximal end to maintain the fastener position relative to the bone plate.
