3D & 4D Orthotics for Feet
At the Dubai podiatry Centre we have various types of orthotics. Our 3D orthotics are made exactly for the shape of the foot. Our 4D orthotics are also made for the shape of the foot but the extra dimension involves an additional moving part which moves the foot into a different position. For example 3-D orthotic that are made exactly for the shape of your foot will hold your foot in exactly the same position – just like a mouth guard is made for the exact position of your teeth. The 4D orthotic changes the existing shape of your foot just like dental braces move your teeth into a new position. That is the simple difference between 3D and 4D orthotics.

Can I have the new 4D orthotics? I work with EK 5 years cabin crew and my feet need something inside my shoe while I am working – they are painful even after only a few hours. Thanks Ben
