According to some websites, the teeth can be the root of many different
ailments.  Here's one interesting site,
"http://www.consultclarity.com/blazing/dental.html"  If you do have an
infection somewhere in your body, I could see the thyroid being affected,
I've read in an old book that all the blood in the body passes through the
thyroid gland every seven minutes, the book said at that point the blood was
cleansed with iodine. If blood passes through the thyroid it makes sense it
could be affected by any mercury or any other bacteria picked up in the mouth
or elsewhere.

Dr. Weston Price, whose work has been forgotten, published extensively in his
time and did an astonishing amount of research. "He found that there seemed
to be hardly any disease or disease process that was not either primarily
caused by dental infections or just worsened by them. The heart and
circulatory system appeared to be favorite target sites for the bacteria
and/or their toxins. He observed angina pectoris, phlebitis, hypertension,
heart block, anemia, and inflammation of the heart muscle often to be side
effects of root canal therapy. He also reported that he would sometimes see
heart patients with outwardly normal appearing root canal teeth resolve most
or all of their symptoms upon removal of those teeth.
Price was able to implant extracted root canal teeth under the skin of
rabbits after removing them from patients with various illnesses. The rabbit
would become ill with precisely the same primary disease that the human tooth
donor had -- arthritis; heart lesions: kidney, liver, and gallbladder
disease; anemia; pneumonia; appendicitis; eye, ear, and skin disorders; and
nervous system disorders, among them.

Every tooth has its own capsule in the jawbone called the periodontal
ligament, which was always routinely left behind after extractions. Huggins
reasoned that the deep-seated root canal infections likely infected this
ligament as well, and conditions of chronic infection could persist even
without the root canal tooth being any longer in place. He then initiated a
quick and simple routing out of this ligament, along with about 1 millimeter
of surrounding jawbone following extractions. By following this procedure,
the residual infection is removed and the site can now heal.
