Cranial Center offers two trusted cranial remolding helmet systems — STARband® 3D and Talee® — along with InfantEar™ ear molding, so the orthotist can choose the solution best suited to your baby rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Quick Answer
Cranial Center provides three products: the STARband® 3D cranial remolding helmet (guided by the STARscanner® 3D laser scan), the Talee® cranial remolding helmet (with its two-stage “2-in-1” growth design), and InfantEar™ non-surgical ear molding. The cranial helmets are fitted and monitored by Cranial Center’s orthotists at all three New Jersey offices. InfantEar™ is available only at the Hazlet and Morristown offices.
STARband® 3D & STARscanner®
A next-generation cranial remolding orthosis that uses precision 3D scanning to deliver a lightweight, ventilated, custom-fitted helmet. The STARscanner® — the first FDA-cleared laser scanning system — captures a full 3D image of your baby’s head shape in under two seconds, with no plaster casting, guiding treatment for deformational plagiocephaly and post-operative craniosynostosis.
- 3-D printed, ventilated, lightweight, with room to grow
- 98%+ one-and-done success rate
- Complimentary initial evaluation scan
Talee®
An ultra-light, thin cranial remolding orthosis made by Invent Medical. Talee’s two-stage “2-in-1” design accommodates up to 30mm of head growth in a single device, so most babies complete treatment without needing a second helmet, with progress monitored during regular clinical follow-up visits.
- 2-in-1 design fits up to 30mm of head growth
- Perforated, breathable shell
- Most babies complete treatment in 3–6 months
InfantEar™
A non-surgical, safe, and effective solution for ear deformities in infants. Early intervention makes all the difference — the earlier ear molding begins, the more effective and comfortable treatment tends to be. InfantEar™ treatment is available only at our Hazlet and Morristown offices.
- Non-surgical ear molding
- Safe and effective for newborns and infants
- Best results with early intervention
