There are different ways to cure tonsilloliths or tonsil stones naturally. Tonsil stones or tonsilloliths are yellow or white in appearance and vary in size.
When tonsilloliths come off from the back of the throat they leave a very distinct sour or bitter taste in the mouth. Tonsilloliths are present in different sizes and even when they are very small the smell is always uncomfortable.
Different methods to get rid of tonsil stones naturally:
1. Use q-tips or fingers to remove them: this method can be quite tricky because of the gag reflex. However if you can withstand this it can be effective when a tonsillolith about to come off.
2. Use your tongue to loosen and/ or dislodge them: this method can be tiring and requires a flexible tongue. The advantage with this method is an absence of gagging.
3. Flexing your throat: by flexing your throat and adding pressure often times the tonsil stone will come off.
4. Hydration: drinking plenty of water throughout the day is a very effective method in keeping tonsilloliths from occurring. Staying hydrated is very important as it keeps excess bacteria from growing.
5. Gargling with mouthwash or hydrogen peroxide: this is a very effective method for dislodging them
6. Brush teeth with baking soda: This is a very effective method in dislodging tonsilloliths and keeping them from coming back for quite some time. Gargling with baking soda is also very effective
