Summary:Methods, devices, and systems for delivering and attaching flexible implants to a bone or joint surface. An implant container (200) includes a first component (202) for surrounding and enclosing an implant (300) and a second component (204) adapted for maintaining, supporting, and conforming the shape of the implant. The implant container is designed to have at least one component (205) attachable to the implant and to a delivery instrument or tool (1100). The implant container component having a material allowing transmission of light through a thickness of the container and a thickness of an attached implant to cure an adhesive placed between the implant and a bone surface. Additionally, embodiments described provide delivery instruments and tools for attaching implants and implants within containers to a joint or bone surface.
