Unlike traditional braces worn 23 hours a day, the Charleston Bending Brace is designed to be worn only at night while sleeping. Night-time bracing is advantageous because it allows the patient to continue with all normal day-time activities such as sports, dance, play, beach, water activities, etcetera. It also eliminates the psychological stigma associated with 23-hour bracing, the result of which is better patient compliance.
