Thermoplastic splints have been used in orthopedic surgery for a number of years, but only recently have the use of the splints improved. This is because a new material - thermoplastic - was introduced to reduce the risk for infection and enhance healing.
Thermoplastic splint sheets are designed with a low temperature which enables them to be placed on severely injured bones. In addition, since this material is not susceptible to bacteria or fungus, it can be used as a biocompatible alternative to metal and carbon fiber.
