The cranium is a hard helmet for the outer layer of the brain, always protecting our brain from the outside world. However, dangers are everywhere and there are always subjective or objective factors that may lead to cranial defects in the skull. If the skull is not repaired for a long time, it may cause many discomforts, which will bring a lot of trouble to our health and life. There are more discomforts arising from cranial bone loss.
