Tonsil Stones are created by an accumulation of sulfur-producing bacteria that become lodged in the tonsils. This accumulation of bacteria putrefies in the back of your throat, and gathers in the small pockets which appear on the surface of the tonsils.
As this bacteria debris combines with the Volatile Sulfur Compounds caused by the anaerobic bacteria under the surface of the tongue, then combined with the tonsil stones, it create chronic Halitosis or bad breath.
Note: If you do not have tonsils then you will not experience tonsil stones. At the same time, if you do have tonsils, this doesn’t mean that you should get them removed.
As people get older, tonsillectomies, can become more dangerous, and even if you do have your tonsils removed, you’ll still experience bad breath. That’s because the sulfur producing bacteria grows beneath the surface of the tongue. So, even with removed tonsils removed, unless the anaerobic bacteria is removed, there is still a great chance your friends will be displaying those tell-tale signs that you have bad breath.
Unless you want to remove your tongue, which is illegal in many countries, there is a better idea, because eliminating tonsil stones isn’t difficult.
Using a combination of active oxygen tablet and nasal sinus drops will eliminate tonsil stones without the need of having tonsil surgery. Additionally, adding the use of an oxygenating breath spray will help to neutralize the anaerobic bacteria found within the surface of the tongue.
If you want to do the best job possible, then the use of an oxygenating toothpaste and mouthwash will be final tools to having fresh breath and no tonsil stones. If desired, a tongue scraper also is very helpful for scraping off the sulfur producing bacteria.
When you use an oxygenating mouthwash and toothpaste you will add the the effect created by the active oxygen tablets and the nasal sinus drops, which will stop the tonsil stones from ever forming again.

Garlic is a wonderful addition to a flavorful meal! Whether it’s garlic fries, garlic toast, or garlic on top of spaghetti. We eat it frequently. While it tastes great and has many health benefits, there’s also a unpleasant side to garlic, it causes bad breath and adds to halitosis.
Many people carry the garlic taste and smell for days after eating the actual garlic-based meal. The garlic smell even seems like it seeps out of the pores of the skin!
One of the reasons that garlic breath can be potent is that it’s full of sulphorous compounds. These compounds act like food for the bacteria in your mouth and bad breath (halitosis) is created as a result.
Although there aren’t any ways to prevent garlic breath, except from barring yourself from eating garlic, there are ways to minimize the smell.
1) Good oral hygiene.
2) Fresh chopped parsley with your meal helps reduce garlic breath.
3) Some people also claim that chewing cardamon seeds has a similar effect to parsley.
4) Breath Spray containing OXYD-8 and an extender rod for reaching the throat.
The best solution is probably just be surrounded with other garlic lovers! But for those who want zero garlic breath, Therabreath is a solution that has worked for millions.
Do you feel like you have a lot of stress? If you’re like most people these days, you claim to be over stressed due to work, kids, bills, and more. We all know that stress affects our overall well being, but did you know that being even more specific, stress affects our oral healthcare as it leads to tooth loss and gum disease. Great, just one other thing to stress about right!
An article published in the Journal of Periodontology last summer, states there is a direct link between stress and periodontal disease, issues like bleeding, sensitive gums, and receding gums. In addition, other psychological factors such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness also cause periodontal disease.
You may be asking, how does stress lead to bad oral health? Well, the stress hormones cortisol is the issue. It is released by the adrenal glands and is necessary for many functions such as glucose metabolism, insulin, blood pressure control, and for inflammatory response and proper immune function.
High levels of stress equate to increased levels of cortisol production. And increased levels of cortisol are linked to an increase deterioration of gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth. This leads to a list of other oral health issue such as tooth decay, gum inflammation, and tooth loss.
Behavioral factors may also be a contributing factor. It’s common for over stressed individuals or those suffering from depression to disregard normal day-to-day oral healthcare. They brush and floss their teeth infrequently. Additionally, high stress leads to increased alcohol and tobacco usage, both of which create an environment friendly for bad breath, germs and gum disease.
It’s very important to find healthy activities the relieve stress. Regular exercise does wonders in lowering one’s stress levels. Also, a well balanced diet adds even more balance.
Another study recently released in the journal of Microbiology shows that over 900 different types of odor producing oral bacteria were found in the throat and tonsil areas. This is a startling find, as most people think that by simply brushing your teeth, including your tongue, you get rid of bad breath.
Most traditional oral care products only cover the smell of bad breath. They don’t actually get rid of it. There are very few products on the market that actually destroy the bad breath producing bacteria. These products, such as Therabreath, use a rich oxygen based formula for destroying the bacteria, as these bacteria don’t survive in an oxygen rich environment. So next time, when looking for a mouth wash, read the label and sees if it contains and oxygen based formula.
