Hi Pgm, thanks. I didn't even know cavitations existed, never heard of them until I started trying to investigate WHY after a wisdom tooth was removed, did my already viral infection system plummet even further.

I can't honestly explain the nightmare I entered after my bottom lefthand wisdom tooth was removed and seemingly no explanation. That's when I came across the cavitation explanation, which "may" be what happened to me.

Unfortunately they are VERY hard to detect and can be hidden cavitations. Most people have them, but I guess it depends which ones are really causing the problems, most infected etc.

E.g. I have apparently had cavitations most of my life on the upper lot of my jaw, yet never noticed issues. Yet when the left lower side was done, wham I got ill, YET hardly a thing shows up on xrays on that particular side, but does show the other ones more clearly.

So it goes to show that even a small gap, maybe enough to store potent bacteria. And in the lower left side, I had a particularly bad time with the oral surgeon who pulled that tooth. He used a razor spinning type blade to cut around the tooth and I wonder sometimes whether alot of dead tissue remained after it was all stitched up, because I was in a lot of pain, he used a heck of a lot of vaso constrictor anaesthetic, which I hate to imagine what that did to the area. I could not get numb, I had heart palpitations through the entire procedure and I just wonder whether there was some damage done because of it all.

A doctor keeps detecting dead pulp in that same area everytime he tests me on his Voll machine....he just keeps saying wet gangrene, so I think there is stuff under there left over from the job that is basically just rot. But again I don't know for certain.

And yes, like leftover amalgam. even a little bit can make the world of difference I heard. I didn't know, but all those years I had a bit of amalgam sitting under my top left composites, only recently discovered when they were replaced with porcleain. So who knows what impact that has had too? And all the horrors I went through to chelate mercury, when I may have been going through half of that agony due to leftover amalgam.....

I don't think most dentists really know how much of an impact the mouth has on the entire body and I am very wary of all dentists, but at least biologic ones have much more knowledge than the mainstream ones who don't seem to take those things into account.

THe one I jsut went to is a mainstream dentist, but at least he was an honest one and listened and I believe he did do what I requested and was made aware of my amalgam toxicity and sensitivity too, which is why he informed me of the bit that had been left over from my past replacements.

It's just a pity that he still uses amalgam in his surgery, so it's concerning that he no doubt does not really buy into the toxicity side of it. However, he seemed to admit that there are definitely more sensitive people around to mercury that would obviously be better off without amalgam, but he said that a lot of people cannot afford the more expensive materials like composites/porcelain.

I felt like saying that the amount of potential damage mercury from amalgam can do, will financially cripple a lot of people in the future when they're paying out medical costs because of it. I'd rather pay more short term for safer materials, than pay far more later on in every way!
