Visitor asks:

Hello,
I have chronic iridocyclitis and my dentist mentioned that there is a device for detecting foci beneath dead teeth. Since I have 4 dead teeth, it is possible that one of them is causing my eye problems. My dentist advised me to try this first; only then, if there were no other way, would I have all the dead teeth extracted one by one.
Does such a device really exist that can show beneath which tooth a focus is located, and who might have one? I also had a panoramic X-ray, which did not show any inflammation.
Thank you very much for your help.
Kind regards,
Roman Hafnar

Dear Sir/Madam!

I personally do not know of a device that detects such foci. In alternative medicine, practitioners use various devices to look for foci, but I would not know how to comment on their reliability.

Have a nice day!
