Dental 4 Less, Tonsil Stones and Bad Breath.
Tonsil stones (tonsilloliths) can be misdiagnosed and are fairly common. Tonsil stones are caused by the accumulation of sulfur-producing bacteria and debris that become lodged in your tonsils. When they become dislodged they can look like a cottage cheese bit. Tonsil stones can also make people have bad breath issues as they have a bad order to them. Having good oral hygiene can help to prevent tonsil stones.
While past treatments for tonsil stones included the removal of one’s tonsils, it is not always necessary. If you have frequent tonsil stones issues make sure to speak with your dentist about it so that you can explore other less evasive options.
