I had a similar problem. Infection around a horizontally impacted wisdom tooth. Got the tooth removed. Infection remained. I had permanent sore throats (worse on left side) and also lymph node problems in my under arms. Actually it got so bad at one point the skin under my arms would peak off on a semi regular basis. I was beyond destroyed physically at that point. Anyway, iodine and other stuff may ’help’ but ultimately you want that infection removed surgically.   [End]

Do you have x-rays before you had your wisdom teeth removed? Quite often if the periodontal ligament isn’t explicitly removed during the time of an extraction, a 1mm cap of bone will simply grow over the top of the extraction site, leaving a cavitation in the bone. If you’ve had dry sockets this is pretty much guaranteed. Unless you’ve had abscesses around these teeth, the probably size and shape will be where the roots of the original teeth were. But it’s not possible to see the exact size and shape of the lesion normally on x-ray, just a rough guide. As for alternate therapies, don’t ...

If a tooth is dead, you should get rid of it. As for implants, they can also be a permanent source of infection. Natural teeth aren’t attached directly to the bone, they are attached by a membrane of ligaments, this membrane also acts as a bacterial seal for the bone. Implants don’t have this, so potentially allow bacteria from the mouth to travel deep into the bone.   [End]

I never felt the infection in my jaw either. Never once had pain or swelling. This is how cavitations work. The bone dies, and there is no blood flow, no immune system access. So the body mounts no defence, no puss no increase in body temperature. The bacteria live in a ball of slime, quite protected from the body. Ultra sound is probably the best way of finding bone anomalies but if you have no access to cavitat an MRI with STIR imaging might be worth a shot. Thermal imaging can work too. But there are other ways of finding cavitations. Often is you push hard on the area it will hurt. ...

Your dentist is right. All implants are doomed to fail. I too wanted a zirconia implant.

From what I’ve read and understand, implants are a flawed concept. It doesn’t matter if they are titanium or zirconium, the problem is the micrograp around the implants.

Root canal teeth are 99.9% always infected. However pulling the tooth most of the time won’t cure the problem, because the infection spreads to the bone. And if the extraction is done poorly and results in a cavitation you are no better off than having the tooth still there.
