Level V (expert opinion).

Stable internal fixation and early motion has not been routinely available for distal radius fractures. Difficulties with the dorsal approach discourage surgeons from internally fixing the most common fracture types. The introduction of a new volar plate with subchondral support fixation allows the treatment of most distal radius fractures with stable internal fixation and early motion while avoiding the complications inherent in the dorsal approach.
