1. A spinal implant comprising:
an interbody device including a top surface and a bottom surface;
a first bone fastener extending from the top surface and a second bone fastener extending from the bottom surface, each bone fastener including a proximal portion and a distal portion, the proximal portion being engageable with a surgical driver having a surgical navigation component that generates data for display of an image representing position of the spinal implant relative to the vertebra,
the proximal portion of the first bone fastener being fixable with an anterior cortical surface of a cephalad cervical vertebra and the distal portion of the first bone fastener being fixable with a cortical surface of a pedicle of the cephalad cervical vertebra,
the proximal portion of the second bone fastener being fixable with an anterior cortical surface of a caudal cervical vertebra and the distal portion of the second bone fastener being fixable with a cortical surface of a pedicle of the caudal cervical vertebra such that the first bone fastener and the second bone fastener are disposed along divergent anterior pedicle trajectories with the vertebrae, and such that the cortical surfaces are spaced apart for bi-cortical fixation.
