Funny story, well I guess not that funny.

I had chronic antibiotic resistant staph infections in my sinuses that wouldn't go away, as well as jaw issues. I went to a cavitation dentist thinking that might be the issue, and he wanted to sell me $6000 surgery, even though my 3D jaw scan showed I had a tooth in my sinus cavity.

It took me nearly 10 months to get multiple opinions, and to finally find a surgeon who would remove the tooth in my sinus cavity. Within a month of surgery to have the tooth removed from my sinus cavity I was able to clear the antibiotic resistant infections finally.

I guess my point is cavitations are real, and they can fuck up your health, but some of these cavitations dentists see everything as a nail and believe their solution is the hammer. If you can clearly see on a scan you have a cavitation, then yes get it cleared out. My buddy had cavitations and they found parasite eggs in the cavitation. He absolutely needed the surgery. In my case, I didn't have cavitations, I just had a tooth in my sinus cavity.

Make sure to get multiple opinions.
