The bone plate assembly of claim 1, wherein the first portion of the locking mechanism engages with the second portion of the locking mechanism to provide an interference lock. 3. The bone plate assembly of claim 1, wherein the first plate is configured to allow the first plate to polyaxially rotate relative to the second plate. 4. The bone plate assembly of claim 1, wherein the first gripping pad pivots relative to the first plate through a range of motion; wherein the range of motion comprises a neutral position and a tilted position;wherein the face is parallel to the obverse side of the first plate in the neutral position;wherein the face is oblique to the obverse side of the first plate in the tilted position. 5. The bone plate assembly of claim 1, wherein, in an initial configuration, the first gripping pad freely rotates relative to the first plate; and wherein, in a final configuration, the first gripping pad is in a locked position relative to the first plate. 6. A bone plate assembly, comprising: a first plate comprising a first obverse side and a first reverse side opposite the first obverse side, said first plate comprising at least one pad, said pad including a plurality of protrusions configured to contact a bone surface, said at least one pad of said first plate configured to allow the pad to pivot about at least one axis relative to the first plate;a second plate comprising a second obverse side and a second reverse side opposite the second obverse side, said second plate comprising at least one pad, said pad including a plurality of protrusions configured to contact a bone surface, said at least one pad of said second plate configured to allow the pad to pivot about at least one axis relative to the second plate; anda locking mechanism disposed between the first and second plates, said locking mechanism defining a longitudinal axis;wherein the bone plate assembly has an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration;wherein the bone plate assembly is configured to transition from the unlocked configuration to the locked configuration in response to a compression force exerted along the longitudinal axis, said compression force urging the first obverse side and the second obverse side together;wherein the locking mechanism has at least a first portion associated with the first plate and at least a second portion associated with the second plate, wherein the first portion and the second portion are configured to engage one another in the locked configuration. 7. The bone plate assembly of claim 6, wherein the first plate is configured to allow the first plate to polyaxially rotate relative to the second plate in the unlocked configuration. 8. The bone plate assembly of claim 6, wherein the at least one pad of the first plate is configured to pivot relative to the first plate through a range of motion; wherein the range of motion comprises a neutral position and a tilted position;wherein the pad is parallel to the obverse side in the neutral position;wherein the pad is oblique to the obverse side in the tilted position. 9. The bone plate assembly of claim 6, wherein, in an initial configuration, the at least one pad of the first plate is configured to rotate relative to the first plate; and wherein, in a final configuration, the at least one pad of the first plate is in a locked position relative to the first plate. 10. The bone plate assembly of claim 9, further comprising a spacer, wherein, in the initial configuration, the spacer prevents unintentional locking of the at least one pad of the first plate relative to the first plate; wherein, in the final configuration, the spacer permits intentional locking of the at least one pad of the first plate relative to the first plate. 11. A plate assembly for attachment to a bone surface, comprising: a first plate comprising a first obverse side and a first reverse side opposite the first obverse side, said first plate comprising at least one pad including a plurality of protrusions configured to contact a bone surface;a second plate comprising a second obverse side and a second reverse side opposite the second obverse side, said second plate comprising at least one pad including a plurality of protrusions configured to contact a bone surface; anda locking mechanism coupling the first plate to the second plate so that the first obverse side faces the second obverse side, said locking mechanism disposed between the first obverse side of the first plate and the second obverse side of the second plate;wherein the plate assembly has an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration;wherein, in the unlocked configuration, the first plate rotates and translates relative to the second plate and permits alignment of the first plate to the bone surface;wherein, in the locked configuration, the first plate is rotationally and translationally fixed relative to the second plate;wherein the plate assembly is configured to transition from the unlocked configuration to the locked configuration in response to a compression force urging the first obverse side and the second obverse side together. 12. The plate assembly of claim 11, wherein the locking mechanism has a first portion and a second portion; wherein an interference lock is provided by the engagement of the first portion with the second portion. 13. The plate assembly of claim 11, wherein, in the unlocked configuration, the first plate is configured to polyaxially rotate relative to the second plate. 14. The plate assembly of claim 11, wherein, in the unlocked configuration, the first plate is configured to polyaxially rotate relative to the locking mechanism. 15. The plate assembly of claim 11, wherein the at least one pad of the first plate is configured to polyaxially rotate relative to the first plate within a recess of the first plate in an initial configuration. 16. A plate system for attachment to bone, comprising: a first plate comprising a first obverse side and a first reverse side opposite the first obverse side;a second plate comprising a second obverse side and a second reverse side opposite the second obverse side; anda locking mechanism coupling the first plate to the second plate with the first obverse side facing the second obverse side, the locking mechanism between the first and second obverse sides;wherein the locking mechanism comprises a first portion and a second portion, the first portion associated with the first plate, and the second portion associated with the second plate;wherein the plate assembly has an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration;wherein, in the locked configuration, the first and second plates are rotationally fixed relative to each other and the first portion of the locking mechanism and the second portion of the locking mechanism are engaged with one another. 17.
