6 yr old with tonsil stones

Hi

She spits one out every couple of days. I do get them so it’s probably hereditary - although I didn’t get them until I was at least 30.

Her throat isn’t sore, her oral hygiene is good and she sees a dentist.

Anything I can do / should do? I guess I’m worried about bad breath as she gets older.

Thanks x

My DD had the same and regularly produced stones. Fast forward to now - she's 19 and was coughing up about 5 a day! So we went private and she just had a tonsillectomy. Not pleasant the older you get so I wish she'd got them removed when she was younger.

Oh really. Thank you, I’ll keep that in mind x
