US market

Manufacturers available in the United States

These companies market alloplastic cranial implants in the US. Most cranial implants reach the market through FDA 510(k) clearance as Class II devices, which is why you will usually see "FDA cleared" rather than "FDA approved."

Listed alphabetically. Compiled October 2026 from public company pages, FDA documents and press releases linked on each card. This list may not be complete and product lines change, so confirm current status in the FDA 510(k) database. Drawings show the implant material type and are not product photos; each company's site has photos of its actual products.

Value analysis

When comparing vendors, ask each one for its 510(k) number and cleared indications, instructions for use, design review process, typical lead time from CT to delivery, sterilization and delivery method, and pricing for stock versus patient-specific options.
