ear cleaning
Removing wax buildup
Ear cleaning is the removal of wax and debris from the ear canal.
This ranges from routine hygiene—cotton swabs, despite medical advice against them—to professional procedures performed by doctors or audiologists.
The term also covers grooming services for pets, whose ear canals require regular maintenance: The dog groomer includes ear cleaning in the basic package.
