Maggot in hollow teeth??

Is it possible to have maggots in hollow teeth. This poor girl of 14 had a toothache - a bad one. She went to her village where her doctor probed and took out a maggot from the tooth. Is This possible or it was just him giving her peace of mind. He also gave some medicines and an injection. What really helped her.
I had given her a few doses of Merc Sol 30 which did not help at all.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.

Nothing is impossible , but this is pretty unlikely.

Merc would only help if she had metallic filings .

If mercury poisoning is known, (Silver mercury fillings) "merc sol" etc. must NOT be given. This will only worsen the situation.
Symptom based treatment in this case must not be used.
Please consult Homeopathic manuals for cases of mercury poisoning.

If there indeed was a maggot in here tooth, it is recommended to have the tooth removed or filled if possible.
Do NOT fill with silver amalgam filling though.

God Bless,

I have seen this myself. Dentists espacially street dentists make people believe that they took out a maggor or insect from the teeth. They even show the insect.

Thanks all of you.. I also feel this showing of maggot is only to give them mental peace. If these poor illiterate people are shown the insect they are relieved and their pain goes away through whatever medicine, injection is given.
