Hi everyone,

My daughter was diagnosed with postional plagiocephaly about a month

ago. She was just casted this morning for her helment. The

orthodist that was there works out of The Detroit Institute for

Children in Detroit, Michigan. He told me the helment she will be

wearing is being made by Danmar products. Is anyone familiar with

this brand of helment?

Hello and welcome! I'm not familiar with the product that you mentioned, but

I know that we do have some people in the group from Michigan so hopefully

they will be able to assist you with your question. I just wanted to jump in

and say hello and welcome! This is a great group for answers, advice and

support - if you get a chance we would love to hear more about you and your

baby!

I am familiar with a helmet made by Danmar. They also fabricate the helmet that U of M uses. I don't know if it is the same helmet or not, but there was a helmet developed by an orthotist at U of M Orthotics and Prosthetics that Danmar in Ann Arbor fabricates for them. It is a 2 -piece helmet that covers the entire head and has "air holes" in it. It is a passive helmet. We used it for about 3 months. I don't know if Children's uses the same helmet as U of M, but if it is the same, I might be able to answer some of your questions.
