Discover how Invent Medical is transforming the landscape of pediatric cranial orthosis through cutting-edge additive manufacturing and innovation. The Talee cranial helmet, crafted with Rilsan® PA11, sets a new benchmark in comfort, performance, and improved sustainability for infants undergoing head shape correction therapy.

What Is Cranial Orthosis and Why Is It Used?

Cranial orthosis, commonly known as a cranial helmet, is a specialized medical device designed to gently correct head shapes in infants, a condition often caused by positional plagiocephaly or other developmental factors. During the early months of life, a baby’s skull is soft and malleable, making it responsive to guided reshaping. By applying consistent, gentle pressure to specific areas of the head, cranial orthoses help promote symmetrical growth.

Why Talee Stands Out

  • Custom 3D-Printed Design Talee helmets are tailored to each infant using advanced white-light scanning and Multi Jet Fusion technology, ensuring a precise fit and optimal therapeutic outcomes.
  • Lightweight & Breathable Comfort Engineered with hollow wall cavities and ultra-thin structures, Talee is up to 40% lighter than traditional helmets and reduces skin irritation and sweating—ideal for sensitive baby skin.
  • Sustainable Innovation Made from 100% bio-based Rilsan® PA11, from renewable castor plants, Talee supports a lower carbon footprint without compromising mechanical strength.
