Understanding Craniofacial Conditions
Craniofacial conditions refer to abnormalities or malformations of the skull and face that occur during fetal development. These conditions can affect the structure, appearance, and functionality of the head and face. Proper treatment is crucial to address the associated risks and potential complications.
The Role of CranioCap® Orthosis
The CranioCap® Orthosis is a custom-fitted helmet-like device designed to gently and comfortably reshape the infant's skull during the critical growth stage. By applying gentle pressure to specific areas, the orthosis guides the growth of the skull bones, allowing for a more symmetrical and proportional shape over time.
