Disclaimer:

Not for children under 3 years old.

Star Bear is a display-only item, outfitted with a miniature Starband® 3D concept design. It is not intended for play or use as a toy. Star Bear is an after-market representation inspired by Starband® 3D, a 3D-printed cranial remolding orthosis, designed to correct head shape deformities in infants with positional plagiocephaly or similar conditions requiring cranial remolding orthosis.

What is the Star Bear campaign?

The Star Bear campaign is designed to support O&P clinicians specializing in cranial remolding orthoses by offering an engaging and heartwarming tool to connect with families and enhance referral relationships. Star Bear is a plush teddy bear wearing a Starband® 3D helmet, providing a relatable way for parents and caregivers to talk about their child’s treatment. It serves as both a comforting gift for families and a marketing asset for clinics to share with healthcare referrals.

How can I use Star Bear in my clinic?

Star Bear can be used in several ways:

As a welcome or milestone gift for families starting or completing their Starband® treatment
As a visual tool during consultations to help explain cranial remolding therapy
As part of a photo station to encourage social media sharing and word-of-mouth referrals
As a thoughtful giveaway during community events or pediatric partner visits
To strengthen emotional connections and reinforce your clinic’s commitment to family-centered care
