Plagiocephaly
Head shape deformity (flat head syndrome) became more frequent after the Back to Sleep Program focused on preventing SIDS*.
Nowadays, more than 3% of newborn babies** have severe or very severe head shape deformity. Up to 50% have mild or moderate deformity.
*SIDS - Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. It occurs often if babies lie on their bellies.
**Deformational plagiocephaly: a follow-up of head shape, parental concern and neurodevelopment at ages 3 and 4 years; B L Hutchison, A W Stewart and E A Mitchell; Archives of Disease in Childhood September 2010.
Orthotic Treatment
Research* shows that orthotic treatment using a helmet is the most effective solution of severe head shape deformity (plagiocephaly & brachycephaly).
The orthosis gently allows the head to correct as it grows. The treatment has a high success rate and only takes between 3 to 6 months. The best time to get started is around the age of 4 months.

Talee Is Unique
We combined our clinical experince with technical strengths and created a revolutionary patented bio-responsive Talee® technology.
-
BREATHABLE
Perforated structures make the orthosis breathable; it allows ventilation which reduces baby’s sweating and skin issues.
-
LIGHT
We leverage the full potential of 3D printing to make Talee® as light as possible. Your baby will quickly forget that they are even wearing a helmet!
-
THIN
Talee® is thin to improve babies’ comfort. It is the only orthosis with a fully integrated closure system to prevent bulk.
