Energy, Inflammation & Intuition: What Happens When You Remove a Chronic Root Canal Infection

19/02/2026

What if your low energy, digestive discomfort, or knee pain wasn't random?

In this solo episode, Eva shares a real patient story from her biological dental practice in Brno, and what changed after removing a chronically inflamed root canal tooth.

"Sometimes what you call normal fatigue is your body compensating for chronic inflammation."

A Hidden Problem Beneath the Surface

A woman in her mid-40s came to DUO Smile looking for a holistic dentist—someone who would connect the dots.

The examination revealed:

  • Cavities hidden under old white composite fillings

  • Damage that was not visible to the naked eye

  • Inflammation confirmed by 3D X-ray imaging

After restoring the cavities using ozone and zirconia-based materials, a deeper issue remained.

The lower right second premolar (tooth 45) that had undergone root canal treatment showed:

  • A periapical lesion (visible inflammation at the root tip)

  • Sclerotic bone formation around the root

  • Sensitivity and long-term systemic burden

When Dense Bone Is Not a Good Sign

Sclerotic bone forms as a defensive reaction. The immune system builds a protective barrier around a necrotic, non-vital tooth.

But this also means:

  • Reduced blood supply

  • Limited oxygenation

  • Low vitality in the area

  • Ongoing stress for the nervous system

Chronic oral inflammation can keep the autonomic nervous system in fight-or-flight mode—even without acute pain.

Preparation Is Part of the Treatment

Before surgery, the patient followed a strict biological protocol:

  • Gluten-free

  • Sugar-free

  • Alcohol-free

  • Dairy-free

  • Seed oil-free

  • Nicotine-free

She also added targeted micronutrient supplementation to support:

  • Bone regeneration

  • Tissue healing

  • Immune resilience

In biological dentistry, preparation is not optional. It is part of the therapy.

The Shift After Removal

The infected tooth was removed and replaced with an immediate zirconia implant.

Four months later, the patient reported:

  • Significantly increased energy

  • A feeling of relief

  • Improved digestion

  • Reduced discomfort in the front of the knee

  • A calmer overall state

Tooth 45 lies on the stomach meridian in Traditional Chinese Medicine and is connected with digestion and the anterior knee.

Coincidence? Possibly.
A pattern? Frequently observed.

Nervous System Recalibration

Once chronic inflammation is removed, the body can:

  • Release long-term stress patterns

  • Shift from fight-or-flight into regeneration

  • Rebalance the autonomic nervous system

  • Restore vitality and resilience

Many patients return months later appearing calmer, stronger, and more grounded.

The Emotional & Symbolic Layer of Teeth

Teeth are not only structural—they carry emotional symbolism.

In practice, we often observe that:

  • Some implants integrate smoothly

  • Others respond more sensitively

  • The symbolism of a specific tooth reflects current life themes

Healing may be supported by:

  • Craniosacral therapy

  • Shiatsu

  • Acupuncture

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine

  • Homeopathy

  • Energy-based modalities

Biological dentistry works alongside these approaches.

What This Episode Teaches:

  • How hidden cavities form under old composite fillings

  • Why sclerotic bone around root canal teeth may signal chronic stress

  • How dental inflammation affects the autonomic nervous system

  • The connection between teeth, meridians, digestion, and joint pain

  • Why zirconia implants are preferred in biological dentistry

  • The importance of nutrition before and after dental surgery

  • How intuition plays a role in deciding treatment timing

  • Why healing is physical, emotional, and energetic

Why This Episode Matters:

  • Many people normalize low energy.

  • They assume fatigue is just stress. Or aging. Or life.

  • But sometimes the body is working overtime to contain silent inflammation.

  • Biological dentistry asks a different question:

  • What if your mouth is influencing your entire system?

"You don't always feel chronic inflammation as pain. Sometimes you feel it as exhaustion."
