Following my earlier post where I talked about using a mouthwash to remove tonsil stones, where I stated that mouthwashes could be effective for dislodging tonsil stones but that I personally did not find it that effective when compared to the other options I was asked if I had tried mouthwashes specifically aimed at the removal of tonsil stones.
I wanted to add clarity to my earlier post, I did try the tonsil stone specific mouthwash alongside Listerine (the burn was too much) and Plax, my preferred mouthwash was Plax because of the flavour but there was nothing in it in terms of the effectiveness of the solutions. I am sure if you were to ask someone who worked in the development of the mouthwashes or someone who had analysed the chemical content in detail they would insist that the products would be very different and they would probably even be able to prove this scientifically, however, in simple terms to us, the end user, I don’t think there is a noticeable difference.
If you buy a top brand of paint like Dulux or Valspar there is very little difference in quality when you are applying the paint to the wall, the chemical make up of the paint it likely very different and they both have “superior formulas” depending on which marketing team you talk to, however, really, you wont notice a difference in the paint you apply to your wall unless you are comparing it to something like Johnstones of a much lower quality, enough about paint!
The main mouthwash brand that pushes itself as a tonsil stone removal specialist is called Therabreath, I have nothing against Therabreath and if you do want to get a complete “tonsil stone removal kit” they are the company to supply it, however, you are paying a huge markup on some fairly standard products that are all packaged together under their brand.
A Therabreath tonsil stone remove kit will set you back around $100 and contain everything from mouthwash to lozenges, they also will help you attack the stones from another angle I have not covered on this blog yet, via nasal drops. You could likely buy all of these products individually at a fraction of the cost but sometimes speed of purchase and convenience trumps bargain hunting!
ReplyDeleteOver time, I noticed that my tonsil stones were getting progressively bigger. They were so big they were the size of a soy bean!
My breath was so bad I completely avoided social situations. I always had a mint in my mouth at work and I always made sure I kept a great distance from people.
I was desperate for answers so I searched everywhere. Books, magazines, the internet.
During the two years, I tried almost every natural remedy and tonsil stone removal method out there. And spent roughly a thousand dollars in the process.
Almost two years and $1,000 dollars later, I stumbled across this one particular method, and to my amazement I've never had a single tonsil stone since...
