Re: battery current kills bacteria

While this technique is probably a valid way to get an infection under control and reduce/eliminate bacterial infection....cavitations are a sealed up little "cavern" in your mouth/jaw and unless the area is opened and cleaned out the problem will just return. The basis of it is dead tissue from the periodontal ligament which was left behind at time of extraction. You can't just run electricity through the site without cleaning out the crud. The bacteria will return eventually.
