I don’t really know much more than this. It’s been a while since I heard about this, so I chatted w/ Claude to see if I wasn’t misremembering, and Claude said I was not. It linked to a few articles and papers on the topic, which support what I said. Here’s one on tooth abscesses from the mayo clinic, another on undiagnosed fevers occasionally being due to dental infections, and one on oral biofilms which can cause chronic infection. I don’t know how helpful this is to you, as it doesn’t seem obviously related to your inflammation, but it’s all I’ve got atm.
