Abstract

A method and apparatus for attaching an artificial nail. In patients who have a deformity of the fingernail or the toenail due to previous injuries, birth defects, or have undergone partial or entire matricectomies (wherein the root of the nail, which creates growth, is removed) due to severe cases of ingrown toenails, disclosed is a method of attachment of an artificial nail supported above the deformity by the use of three bone anchors, three posts, and a nail scaffold. A method for attaching an artificial nail that does not use adhesives, nor does it rely upon the patient having a natural nail to securely fit the artificial nail over the deformity.
