Guest guest Posted August 14, 2002 Report Share Posted August 14, 2002 Hi , From what I understand if you have a dentist experienced with cavitations and detection of, they use a slightly different x-ray (panoramic) to diagnose cavitations (it is not expensive $30-$50). This is old information and things might have changed by now but I imagine a web search would bring up current info. If someone has current info please bring us up to date. You would not necessarily know if you had or have an infection there, it is deep in the tissue and into the bone of the jaw. The area has to be reopened and the jaw bone scraped and cleaned of infection. Usually antibiotic, and IV peroxide therapy follow depending on the dentist, current treatment protocols and extent of infection.

It uses ultrasound to diagnose cavitations and other formations which x-ray cannot " see " . Apparently it is accurate.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2002 Report Share Posted August 14, 2002 To accuratley diagnose this condition any x ray will fall short other than the use of the machine CAVITAT. I have researched this condition extensively. Go to www.healthcarealternatives.net and read about Stockton and Bob . Also there should be a link on that site to a guy named Jerry Bouquot. Or go on the net and type in NICO. when did you have your wisdom teeth extracted?After a period of 'ok' health my condition crashed severely after wisdom teeth op. Let me know.
