Sarah Dillingham, Inventor of an Orthopedic Wrist Brace and Splint
Meet Sarah Dillingham, a Seattle-area inventor focused on making recovery easier for people with wrist injuries. She is the inventor behind U.S. Patent No. 10,864,105 B2 for an Orthopedic Wrist Brace and Splint designed to provide strong support without the bulk and discomfort of traditional braces. Sarah set out to create a brace people could realistically wear throughout their daily routines.
What began as a simple effort to improve comfort and usability grew into a patented medical device now helping thousands, showing how practical design and strong patent protection can turn a real need into real impact.
Sarah invented a patented orthopedic wrist brace and splint designed to better support the natural anatomy of the wrist while staying comfortable for extended wear. Unlike traditional braces that can feel bulky or restrictive, her design takes a more ergonomic, practical approach. It delivers targeted stabilization while allowing users to remain active at work, home, and during recovery, making it easier to follow treatment plans without disrupting daily routines.
The brace supports people with injuries, repetitive stress conditions, or post-surgical recovery. Sold under Grace & Able, more than 10,000 units have been purchased. With patent protection secured alongside Bold Patents attorney Christopher Mayle, the innovation is built for lasting growth.
