There is disclosed an implantable medical device for restoring bone alignment and stabilizing a fracture, comprising a screwless bone plating system for contacting at least a portion of a bone. In one embodiment, the screwless bone plating system comprises at least one clamp comprising: a top portion a bottom portion, and an attachment for securing the clamp to a bone without drilling a screw into the bone. Unlike current bone plating systems, the inventive clamp exhibits functionality in that it realigns a fracture when applied to the bone, and remains implanted in the body to stabilize the fracture. The medical device described herein may further comprise at two clamps for attaching to a bone, such as on opposite sides of a bone fracture and at least one bone plate that spans the fracture when attached to the two clamps. There is also disclosed a method of reducing and stabilizing a bone fracture, the method comprising contacting a fractured bone with an implantable medical device as described herein.
