Services
Pediatric Orthotics and Prosthetics in Dubai: Overview
Every child deserves the chance to move, play, and grow with confidence. When mobility challenges arise, pediatric orthotics and prosthetics provide the support, alignment, and functionality needed for children to thrive.
At OrthoMENA, we are recognized as the leading provider of pediatric orthotics and prosthetics in the UAE, trusted by families and referral partners for our combination of advanced technology, clinical expertise, and comprehensive in-house manufacturing capabilities.
The Concept of Pediatric Orthotics and Prosthetics
Pediatric Orthotics: Custom-made external devices designed to support, align, or improve the function of a child’s musculoskeletal system. They can assist with walking, posture, and balance, while also preventing deformities from worsening.
Pediatric Prosthetics: Artificial limbs designed for children who are born with limb differences or have experienced limb loss due to trauma or illness. These devices are carefully crafted to accommodate growth while restoring mobility and function.
At OrthoMENA, these devices are carefully fitted to each child, taking into account growth, lifestyle, and therapeutic needs, ensuring safe, effective, and comfortable use.

Types of Pediatric Orthotics and Prosthetics We Provide
Pediatric Orthoses
- Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO Brace): Stabilizes the ankle and foot, corrects alignment, and improves walking patterns. Indicated for flat feet, cerebral palsy, muscular weakness, or post-injury rehabilitation.

- Knee-Ankle Foot Orthosis (KAFO): Provides full leg support for children with severe instability.
- Upper Limb Orthoses: Enhances arm and hand function for developmental, traumatic, or post-surgical conditions.
Pediatric Prosthetics
- Upper Limb Prosthetics: Custom-designed artificial arms and hands for children with congenital limb differences or post-injury limb loss, supporting functional use and daily activities.
- Lower Limb Prosthetics: Artificial legs, from partial foot prostheses to above-knee devices, designed to restore mobility, improve gait, and adapt as children grow.
- Silicone and Maxillofacial Prosthetics: Soft, lightweight, and realistic prosthetic devices for limbs and craniofacial reconstruction, including ears, noses, and other facial structures—restoring both function and natural appearance.
All orthoses and prosthetics are custom-fabricated in-house—whether through 3D printing, thermoplastic molding, silicone casting, or carbon prepreg layering—so they’re tailored precisely to each child’s growth, lifestyle, and comfort needs.

Integrated Care Approach
Orthotic and prosthetic treatment is most effective when it complements therapy. That’s why we collaborate with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and rehabilitation teams to ensure every device integrates seamlessly into the child’s broader treatment plan.
Why Early Intervention Matters
- 1 in 1,000 children worldwide is born with Cerebral Palsy
- 15–20% of school-aged children have flat feet requiring orthotic care
Research shows that early fitting with pediatric orthotics and prosthetics:
- Improves walking and balance
- Prevents or slows deformity progression
- Enhances confidence in daily life
- Ensures better long-term outcomes, especially with early prosthetic fitting
