Cranial orthotics, or helmets, are used to treat infants with congenital head deformities or those acquired after birth. The most common head deformity is plagiocephaly, where one side of the head is flat, and the other side protrudes.
Eighty-five percent of cranial growth occurs within the first 12 months of life, making this period ideal for cranial reshaping treatment. Current literature on cranial remolding orthoses supports this, stating that treatment is most effective before 12 months but can still be beneficial up to 18 months of age.
At Xtremity, we use advanced technology to scan the 3-dimensional shape of your child's head, ensuring the design and fabrication are carried out under strict supervision.
At Xtremity, our orthotist in Dubai holds certification and training in cranial remoulding orthosis and effectively handles thorough evaluation. After the 3D scanning, we configure the most favourable design type for you.
