Where Do Tonsil Stones Come From? Are They Normal? Why
Simple Steps You Can Take To Remove Tonsil Stones (Without
New Article by Dr. Harold Katz - Founder, California
Tonsil Stones (tonsilloliths) are caused by an accumulation of
sulfur-producing bacteria and debris that become lodged in the tonsils.
This debris (which can include mucous from post nasal drip) putrefies
in the back of your throat, and collects in the tonsil crypts (small
divots or pockets which appear on the surface of the tonsils).
this debris combines with the Volatile Sulfur Compounds produced
by the anaerobic bacteria beneath the surface of your tongue, along
with the tonsil stones it can also create chronic
Halitosis (and other stubborn bad breath
and taste disorders).
Important: If you do not have your tonsils then you will NOT
(except for rare exceptions) experience tonsil stones. However this
does NOT mean that you should run out and get your tonsils removed.
As we get older, tonsillectomies become increasingly dangerous,
but aside from that, even if you have your tonsils removed, you
will most likely still have bad breath! Why is that?
You see, the sulfur producing bacteria breeding beneath the surface
of your tongue (which are integral to the creation of those tonsil
stones) are also the most likely candidates to cause bad breath!
So, even if you have your tonsils removed, unless you remove
or hinder these anaerobic bacteria, your friends may still exhibit
those tell-tale signs that YOU have bad breath! (i.e. pulling away,
offering you gum, twitching at their nose, etc.)
And, since you can't have your tongue removed (at least not in
the U.S.), there is a better idea: Fortunately, getting rid of tonsil
stones is not that difficult...
A simple combination of
and Nasal Sinus
Drops will effectively eliminate tonsil stones without unnecessary
tonsil surgery. Plus, occasional use of a Oxygenating Spray will
help to immediately neutralize the anaerobic sulfur-producing bacteria
on co tact.
Now keep in mind, if you truly want to prevent
Bad Breath then you must use an oxygenating
mouthwash and ideally a tongue scraper
to effectively neutralize the anaerobic bacteria from the very back
of the tongue.
When you use such an oxygenating toothpaste and mouthwash (like
TheraBreath) you will experience a
residual effect from the
solution, and it will stop the tonsil stones from ever forming again.
