Tonsil holes (crypts) are a normal part of the tonsil anatomy where debris can accumulate. They cannot be permanently closed or sealed without medical intervention like surgery, which is usually only considered if they are causing recurrent infections or other health issues. Practicing good oral hygiene and using salt water gargles can help to keep them clean and reduce bad breath associated with tonsil stones.

What are tonsil stones and where can these be safely removed?

Hi there, I had my tonsils removed 5 months ago because of my tonsil stones. Tonsil stones are actually a build up of plaque, bacteria and any other debris that finds its way to the small concave shaped holes in your tonsils. You can have the tonsil stones removed by any hospital/a&e however they would probably recommend to have your tonsils removed all together which I promise you is a lot better. I suffered with tonsil stones and tonsillitis for my whole life and I am so glad I had them removed. Go to your GP and tell them about the stones, they will refer you to the hospital to either get your tonsils or the stones removed
