Orthonyxic brace fitting

Description

An orthonyxia brace is a small wire or composite element that we attach to the nail plate. It works like braces on teeth, but for the nail: it gradually straightens the curvature so the nail stops growing into the fold. The brace is painless to wear, invisible under polish, and stands up to swimming and showering. The standard cycle is a check-up every 4–6 weeks over 4–6 months. It's a long-term solution, unlike cutting the nail, which removes the effect but not the cause.

Who it's for

Patients with a recurring ingrown toenail, people wanting to avoid repeated cutting.

What to expect

60 minutes for the first visit (fitting). Follow-up check-ups are 30 min every 4–6 weeks. No pain, no restrictions on daily life.
