What is a nail brace?

Nail braces are used for malformed nails thanks to inflammation and pain caused by ingrown toenails. As a nail correction brace, they relieve the nail and then ensure gentle and effective correction of nail growth. They can also be used to prevent further ingrowth of nails into the nail wall or nail bed and to restore the natural nail shape.

What types of nail braces are available?

Depending on the design, tension, traction and force of leverage are used to meet the nail correction system. The following nail braces can be distinguished:

• Adhesive braces: Because of their quick application and individual cutting, adhesive braces are extremely often used. They are glued to the nail plate and relieve the nail fold and nail wall thanks to their inherent tension. By mildly lifting nail edges, they prevent further ingrowth and correct nail growth.
• Spring/wire braces: Wire and spring clasps are also a common treatment method for ingrown nails along with nail misalignments. The benefit of wire braces for nail correction systems is that they are custom-made. The wire is fitted exactly to the nail and carefully hooked onto the edges of the nail. This results in a precise, controlled nail correction system.
• Combination of adhesive and wire braces: Some designs combine the inherent tension of adhesive braces with the pulling and leverage effect of wire braces. In this case, one side of the clasp can be glued on while you hook the other side onto the edge of the nail.

What are Ross-Fraser spring burs?

Ross-Fraser nail correction braces are among the best known nail correction braces and have been contacted for over 60 years. They were coined by the Scottish chiropodist Ross Fraser, who further developed spring clips for individual treatment. The Ross-Fraser brace uses a round wire from which perfectly fitted corrective braces can be made. A special hammer including an anvil along with wire cutters and wire pliers are used for this purpose. With these, the round wire can be precisely cut, flattened and deburred.

What benefits do Ross-Fraser spring burs offer?

Ross-Fraser spring nippers offer the best practical benefit thanks to the fact that they can be adapted to individual nails with millimetre precision in order to precisely control the effect of the force of leverage. In this way, the nail brace offers a treatment tailored to the patient, an exact and quick nail correction system, pain relief and controlled nail growth.

How does a Ross-Fraser spring nail clasp work?

The extremely special feature of Ross-Fraser nail clasps: The spring wire is individually adapted to nails. In contrast to other nail braces, the Ross-Fraser principle also uses leverage instead of tension. In this way, the nail correction system can be applied to one or both sides of the nail edges, as required. This proves extremely convenient when nails curl or grow in on one side. Since you activate and control the lever action manually, you always have control over the nail correction system. Our BLUE LIGHT professional hard gel or UV soft gel can also be used to fix the wire and spring clasps.
