ABSTRACT:
A cranial remodeling band has an internal surface shaped to the configuration to which a subject's cranium is to be reconfigured. The band has at least one discontinuity therein permitting relative movement of anterior and posterior portions of the band. An elastic member extending across the discontinuity biases the anterior and posterior regions toward each other.
