Orthoses are externally applied devices used to modify the structural and functional characteristics of the neuromusculoskeletal systems; prostheses are externally applied devices used to replace, wholly or in part, an absent or deficient body segment. In
Orthoses that are designed to modify the structural and functional characteristics of the neuromusculoskeletal systems of the spine and skull; the device may be custom fabricated to meet the functional needs of the individual user or prefabricated to meet

Orthoses that encompass the whole cervical and thoracic regions, including the atlanto-occipital joint
Orthoses that encompass the whole cervical, thoracic, lumbar and sacro-illiac regions, including the atlanto-occipital joint
Articulating components of orthoses allow or control the motions of anatomical joints of the spine. Included are, e.g joints for spinal orthoses.
Interface components of orthoses are those in direct contact with the user; they transmit the forces between the orthosis and the user which result from its function and may retain the orthosis in place. Included are, e.g. shells, pads, straps.
Structural components of orthoses connect the articulating and interface components and maintain the alignment of the orthosis. Included are, e.g. uprights, shells.
Finishing components are the means of providing shape, colour and texture to orthoses. Included are, e.g. fillers, covers, sleeves.
Orthoses, worn in the mouth, used to permit changes in the position of the lower mandible relative to the upper jaw. Included are, e.g. mandibular advancement splints (MAS).
