FIXING APPARATUS FOR TOES
A toe fixing device that is capable of fixing a patient's ingrown toenail to correct the ingrown toenail, without the assistance of the patient or his or her surgeon, to thus allow an adherent composition to be applied to the ingrown toenail of the patient through the free use of both hands of the surgeon. The toe fixing device includes an upper plate reference part having an upper plate, a long movement guide hole piercedly, and a fixing support stand; a lower plate moving part having a lower plate, a fixing hole, a nut, and a moving support stand; and a position fixing part adapted to fix the lower plate moving part movable to the left and right sides along the long movement guide hole of the upper plate reference part to the upper plate reference part.

Adjustable Nail Bed Splint
An adjustable nail bed splint can be fitted to a plurality of patient-specific nail beds of varying shapes. The adjustable nail bed splint includes a splint plate having a proximal end portion and a distal end portion spaced apart along a longitudinal axis and first and second longitudinal edge margins spaced apart along a lateral axis. The splint plate is adjustable for fitment to a patient-specific nail bed. The splint plate is stiffer along the longitudinal axis than along the lateral axis to facilitate deforming the splint plate laterally to generally conform to a lateral curvature of the patient-specific nail bed. A kit for splinting nail beds includes an adjustable nail bed splint within sterile packaging. The adjustable nail bed splint is configured to be fitted to a plurality of patient-specific nail beds of varying shapes.

Implant for removable prosthetic nail
An assembly for mounting a prosthetic nail for a human or animal digit. The assembly includes at least one transdermal anchor with an interior portion and an exterior portion. The interior portion may be positioned within tissue of the digit, and the exterior portion may extend outside the tissue of the digit. In another aspect, an exterior base may be positioned on a nail bed of the digit, and the exterior base may be coupled to the exterior portion of the transdermal anchor. The base may include a mount for removably a prosthetic nail to the base.

Anchor and brace for correcting ingrown nails
System, devices, and methods for correcting ingrown nails are disclosed. A system includes a first anchor and a second anchor configured to be coupled to opposing sides of an ingrown nail of an end user. A first brace and a second brace are configured to be removably coupled to respective ones of the first and second anchors. An elastic loop is secured between the protrusions of the braces to apply continuous tension to the braces. The tension is distributed to the nail through the anchors to which the braces are coupled. The amount of tension applied to the nail can be selected by selecting different elastic loops to attach to the braces. The tension provided by the elastic loops corrects the ingrown nail over time without pain to the user.
