What is the Bacquart tab?

The Bacquart tab is an innovation in orthonyxia developed by podiatrist David Bacquart, after many years of practice and analysis of existing techniques. The objective was clear: to propose a nail correction method that was effective, quick to apply, accessible and economical, while avoiding the disadvantages of traditional methods.

A simple, quick technique without expensive equipment

This tab reproduces the gentle, continuous traction effects sought in orthonyxia, while eliminating the need for expensive equipment or dental products. It can be applied quickly, in just a few minutes, with the same protocol as conventional tabs: cut to size, direct bonding, without polymerization. The titanium wire acts gradually to correct the pathological curvature of the nail, relieve pain and prevent complications such as ingrown nails, periungual corns or hypercurvatures.


An adaptable and comfortable solution

The Bacquart strip is available in different diameters (0.12 mm for thinner nails, 0.14 mm for thicker nails), allowing it to be adapted to each clinical situation. Its polymer coating ensures aesthetic discretion, while avoiding the risk of snagging with socks or shoes. It thus offers optimal comfort for patients, while guaranteeing practitioners a reliable and reproducible result, even without special technical investment.


In summary: a major advance in orthonyxia

In summary, the Bacquart tab represents a major advance in orthonyxia: it combines the corrective power of titanium, the simplicity of cold application, speed of execution and a very low cost, making care more accessible without compromising on quality.
