It filters out the dust particles, bacteria and other pollutants on a daily basis. Tonsil stones are scientifically known as tonsilloliths. These tonsil stones are those horrible whitish/yellow colored, stinking, lumps on your tonsils.

Today we know that for some 90% of cases, chronic bad breath is caused by a bacterial imbalance in the mouth. These halitosis causing anaerobic bacteria are by definition oxygen intolerant and will therefore seek areas of the mouth that will allow them to survive and develop.
