Specifications

Plaster is the traditional treatment for bone fractures in orthopedic clinics. It has long been the most advantageous option, due to how easy it is to make and its low cost. In addition, most people have good tolerance to plaster and allergies to it are very rare.

The problem with plaster is that it is heavy and must remain dry: water will distort the cast shape and can cause problems for healing should the cast get wet.
