Sorry gross out klaxon! Any dentist around to help?

My daughter has been complaining for the last 6 months of having blobs of plaque in her mouth. I brush her teeth for her and dentist who we visited a few weeks ago said her teeth are nice and healthy, no plaque issues he could see. So I assumed it was just a new sensory issue more than anything (she is on the spectrum).

This morning she spat out this (hopefully photo attaches). What is going on and where are all these blobs coming from?!

Tonsil stones

That was quick! Thank you for replying. I had a look and it's a possibility. Only thing is that it's supposed to smell and also make her breath smell and neither of that is true for her.

Eee tonsil stones for sure. My daughter used to have these all the time they are horrid. she used to gargle with salt water and poke them out which is not recommended but they apparently feel awful and she couldn't help it. They eventually just disappeared.

I squashed and sniffed but couldn't smell anything too foul. They must be tonsil stones though. So nasty!! Obviously I won't say that to her and will give her salt water instead but inside I am ewwwwwwwwww! Thank you ladies. Flowers
