Dental cavitations - How to deal with infections left behind after a tooth extraction
by Michael Edwards
(NaturalNews) Soon after having her wisdom teeth removed, Nicole experienced extreme chronic pain on her left side, overwhelming fatigue, hair loss, "severe brain fog" and an increase in allergies and chemical sensitivities. She regained some of her health through an organic diet (alleviation of the chronic pain and brain fog) before finding information about cavitations - infections in the crater and bone left behind after an extraction. Now that her infections are being treated, her other symptoms are disappearing as well; her hair is growing back and she has fewer allergies and chemical sensitivities.
Cavitations
Cavitations are infection of the bone after tooth extraction. It is believed that most of these infections are caused by two things: leaving the tendon that was attached to the tooth and not excavating the site of infection. Another cause may be the use of drugs during the procedure that cut off the blood flow to the site.
The best practice when cavitations are found is to clean out the site, remove any dead tissue, bone, and the tendon, then allow the blood to clot. This blood clot forms the site for new cells to grow, to actually fill in the missing bone and build new healthy tissue. A dry socket or a closed site over active infection does not allow this healing process to occur.
When cavitations occur, they are often asymptomatic. Although the bone is being eaten by nasty anaerobic bacteria, there may be no pain. The bacteria, however, is exuding powerful toxins that may be causing damage to your immune system or the toxins may be the underlying cause of your chronic health condition(s).
How to support your immune system
A truly healthy diet is the foundation of health and a healthy immune system. If your body is dealing with toxins from cavitations or if you are dealing with the aftereffects, give your body the nutrient dense foods it needs.
Make sure that 80% of your diet consists of fresh, raw, organic produce, more vegetables than fruits. All meat should be organic. Add omega 3 fats to your diet. No artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, MSG, GMOs, or trans fats. No sugar. In other words, eat real food, not processed food.
