Today on the Holistic Dentistry Show, Dr. Sanda continues her exploration of jaw bone cavitations and discusses how they form and why they are so difficult to diagnose.

Jawbone cavitations can significantly impact overall health, especially for those with chronic pain. Dr. Sanda breaks down the science of what exactly a jawbone cavitation is and how it can lead to osteonecrosis and inflammation. Studies show that jawbone cavitations are linked to elevated cytokine levels, which is why they are linked to systemic health issues. Dr. Sanda identifies lifestyle choices and related health issues that may increase the risk of developing a jaw cavitation, including root canals. Jaw cavitations can be difficult to diagnose, and Dr. Sanda emphasizes receiving proper diagnosis and treatment.
