ABSTRACT:
A cranial orthosis band is shaped to extend across the top of the head with depending regions closely confining the temporal bone regions and the mastoid process regions of the cranium. The orthosis includes a rear region which encloses the occipital bone region of the cranium so that flattening of the rear of the head can be treated or prevented. The orthosis is self-suspending. The rear portion of the orthosis imparts ear-to-ear rigidity to the device.
