Every noticed a white to yellowish coloured particle present in your mouth that stinks? These are the tonsil stones or tonsilloliths caused by trapped food, saliva, mucus and bacteria in the small pockets on the tonsil walls. Although harmful, tonsil stones can cause bad breath and sometimes swelling and soreness as well. Mostly caused due to cold and improper oral hygiene, tonsil stones come out on their own. In a few rare cases, people might need medical help to get them removed. However, you can easily get rid of tonsil stones naturally through some home remedies. Follow these.
