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.
Explain the difference between a debridement and a regular cleaning. A regular cleaning is a prophylaxis in dental terms. It is the removal of plaque, calculus, and stains from the tooth structures. A prophylaxis is accomplished by using dental instruments that scrape away deposits from the teeth. An electric device, called an ultra-sonic or sonic scaler, may be used.
