Prostheses can improve an individual's mobility, function, and quality of life by allowing them to perform daily activities that would otherwise be difficult or impossible. They can also help to restore a natural appearance and improve self-esteem. In addition, using a prosthesis can help to prevent the development of other medical conditions, such as joint contractures and muscle atrophy, which can occur as a result of a missing body part. Overall, prostheses can greatly improve an individual's independence, confidence, and quality of life.
