Toenail debridement refers to the act of physically removing any unwanted tissue or substance from a toenail or associated structures. What this exact substance is can vary greatly; however, the unifying trait is that anything removed is typically unwanted or harmful. Toenail debridement can sometimes be aesthetic but can also be life saving.
Description. In debridement, dead tissue is removed so that the remaining living tissue can adequately heal. Dead tissue exposed to the air will form a hard black crust, called an eschar. Deeper tissue will remain moist and may appear white, or yellow and soft, or flimsy.emoval of dead tissue from pressure ulcers and other wounds speeds healing. Although these procedures cause some pain, they are generally well tolerated by patients and can be managed more aggressively. It is not uncommon to debride a wound again in a subsequent session.
