The dorsal design is lower profile and more comfortable than traditional posterior night splints, improving compliance for patients who prefer a less intrusive device during sleep. The flexible hinge allows optimal dorsiflexion adjustment for a customized stretch angle, while the soft, pliable construction and removable, washable cloth liner keep the brace comfortable for extended nightly wear. An optional toe assist strap secures the toes within the forefoot area for additional stretch. Fits left or right foot.

Patients who have tried posterior night splints and found them too bulky or uncomfortable to sleep in will appreciate the dorsal design, which sits on top of the foot rather than behind the heel and is significantly less intrusive during sleep. Athletes and active adults who use overnight splinting as a passive complement to their daytime stretching routine will find the adjustable hinge allows precise control over the stretch angle. DME suppliers and medical supply purchasers sourcing Aircast dorsal night splints will find the 09DS and 09DL a consistently available two-size option in this category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does a dorsal night splint differ from a posterior night splint?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA posterior night splint wraps around the back of the calf and heel, which many patients find bulky and uncomfortable during sleep. A dorsal night splint sits on top of the foot and shin, holding the foot in dorsiflexion with a lower profile that is generally more tolerable for sleeping. Both achieve the same therapeutic goal of maintaining a passive overnight stretch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I choose between SM\/MD and LG\/XL?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSM\/MD fits men's shoe sizes 5 to 9.5 and women's sizes 6 to 10.5. LG\/XL fits men's shoe size 10 and above and women's 11 and above. If you are between sizes, consult your healthcare provider for guidance on which size will provide the most effective stretch angle for your foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the toe assist strap and do I need to use it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe optional toe assist strap secures the toes within the forefoot section of the splint to add a gentle additional stretch. It is not required for basic use but may be recommended by your provider for a more targeted stretch. Follow your healthcare provider's instructions on whether and how to use this strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I clean the liner?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe cloth liner is removable — detach it from the splint and hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Allow to air dry completely before reattaching and wearing. Clean the hard shell with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aircast","offers":[{"title":"SM\/MD","offer_id":53006146896181,"sku":"09DS","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"LG\/XL","offer_id":53006146928949,"sku":"09DL","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1443\/4772\/products\/aircast-plantar-fasciitis-night-splint-sm-md-aircast-dorsal-night-splint-for-plantar-fasciitis-sm-md-and-lg-xl-23631667494966.jpg?v=1788637113","url":"https:\/\/www.precisionlabworks.com\/products\/aircast-dorsal-night-splint-for-plantar-fasciitis-sm-md-and-lg-xl","provider":"Precision Lab Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
