"Fitting and adjusting the custom made cranial remolding orthosis (helmets for babies with flat head)

is within the scope of practice of Board Certified Orthotist"

As a Board Certified Prosthetist Orthotist (CPO) I do evaluate, scan, fit and adjust all cranial remolding orthosis myself.

Since this has to be done by certified orthotist, in my offices, there is no Nurse, Physical Therapist, Occupational therapist or certified orthotic fitter involved.

 

 

Main complain from parents about these type of helmets are:

- ​Too much sweating and skin issues

- Too heavy

- Bad odor

- Too bulky

- Too many adjustments (once every week or 2 weeks)

- Pushing eyebrows down

** All above are reasons that increase the non-compliance wearing **

 

But there was not alternative option UNTIL ...

Talee

 

has been designed

&

I am so excited to offer Talee helmets in my offices now


 

 

 

Now lets see what makes Talee cranial remolding orthosis exceptional:

- FDA cleared

- Light weight

- Much better accuracy with high resolution scanning system and 3D printing, resulted in better fitting

- Less or no sweat thanks to the design

- Less frequency office visits and adjustments

- Different colors to choose

 

Lets learn more about Plagiocephaly and brachycephali (Two common head deformities):

(Note: these information consider just as a basic information, and it is not intended for diagnosis, treatment, or any other health recommendation.

The only best resource would be your medical doctor, pediatrician or certified orthotist​)

- Plagiocephaly:

• The most common type of skull deformity in infants

• Normally noticed by parents at about six to 10 weeks of age

• Characterised by an asymmetrical skull shape

• Unilateral occipital flattening

• Ear is positioned more anterior on the side of the occipital flattening

• Forehead may be asymmetrical and is positioned more anterior

on the side of the occipital flattening

• Facial asymmetry may be present

• May be accompanied by torticollis, limited neck range of motion,

weakness and preferential head positioning

- Brachycephaly:

• Central occipital flattening
• High and sloped skull. The head is excessively wide for its length

• May be accompanied by a prominent, bossed forehead

 

 

 

 

Now that we know little bit about these most common head deformities, lets see what are the cause of them:​

  • Prolonged exposure to the supine position

  • Lack of time on the tummy when the baby is awake

  • Congenital muscular torticollis, neck weakness or restricted neck range of motion

  • Males more frequently develop deformational plagiocephaly at a rate of 2:1

  • Breech or transverse presentation

  • Multiple births (Twins)

  • Premature birth

  • Some devices that keep baby in one position, restrict from movement for long time such as some car seats, strollers, ...
