Abstract

computer-aided design/computeraided manufacturing braces leads to better in-brace corrections than many cast-made braces, and also better in-brace corrections when comparing to computer-aided design/ computer-aided manufacturing braces as published. Conclusion Symmetric braces are outdated. Asymmetric braces allow better in-brace correction when compared to symmetric braces. Asymmetric braces according to the actual, Best Practice® computer-aided design/ computer-aided manufacturing standard allow for improved in-brace corrections promising the best possible radiological and cosmetic end results. Future studies on in-brace corrections and outcomes on brace treatment should use the Scoliosis Research Society inclusion criteria for bracing to improve comparability.
