About the Course

Nail braces are evidence-based, affordable for patients, and profitable for practitioners. They provide a non-invasive alternative to more drastic interventions, reducing the risk of complications and promoting better patient outcomes.

During your training, you’ll be introduced to a variety of bracing systems readily available to you. These include:

Composite solutions:

  • Onyfix
  • RUCK BlueLight

FusionWired/metal adhesive solutions:

  • 3TO Podostripe
  • RUCK Goldstadt

Professional and Adhesive braces:

  • BS Spange
  • 3TO Podostripe

The practical sessions will give you hands-on experience with these different systems, allowing you to gain confidence in their application and use. By becoming proficient with a range of braces, you ensure that you can tailor your treatment plans to the specific needs of each patient, rather than being restricted to a single method. This adaptability is crucial in providing the best care possible and achieving optimal outcomes for your patients.
