Guest guest Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I had a friend who is an orthotist confirm to me what I had suspected. Many orthotists push plastic braces because they are easier to make and probably more profitable too. He said that he prefered metal braces but because he worked for someone else, he had to go along with what was going on. Metal or plastic braces can be used for the same conditions. I think the metal ones are easier to wear and they sure have less skin contact making them cooler in hot weather. My friend told me he was trying to start his own store sooner or later and would be more open about the choices in braces. His preference is for the metal braces.
