An orthopedic plate is specifically configured for use in osteotomies, in which part of the plate extends into a por¬tion of a first bone segment and part is external to the cortical surface of an adjacent bone segment to fix the segments to allow them to fuse. The plate has a first end and a second end where the end which is inserted into the bone has a chamfer and a through hole having a hole axis optionally at an oblique angle to the longitudinal axis of the plate, and which can receive a screw, peg or pin. The second end of the plate includes a locking screw hole and optionally including a compression slot extending in a direc¬tion toward a screw hole in the opposing end. A plate driver having a recess that holds the plate is used to insert the plate into the bone.
