How do Ear Buddies splints work?
The splints work by reshaping the pliable cartilage which forms the framework of a baby’s ear. At birth the cartilage is particularly soft because it is under the influence of oestrogen from mother; it slowly hardens with age. Splintage simply moulds the framework towards a normal shape by reforming the antihelical groove; the groove is vital to enable the ear to sit properly against the side of the head.
