Jenny McCarthy Talks About The 'Growth' In Her Eyeball And Other Health Scare

<span>Jenny McCarthy</span>, American actress and model in an interview with People revealed her 'horrific' experience of having mouth infections. She is now feeling thankful for being able to eat the Thanksgiving turkey dinner. 

<h2>What Happened to Jenny McCarthy?</h2>

She tells People, "I've had nine surgeries this year, on my mouth. I had one infection that turned into another and another, and then I had these growths show up on my eyeballs."

How it started? She said it all started with a failed ceramic dental implant. "My teeth were falling out, implants falling out. They finally had to dig into my jawbone and chipped away, and found I had a deep bone infection. I've been on antibiotics for a year, and have had to eat soft foods only."

While on the November 25 holiday card with she and her husband Donnie Wahlberg, McCarthy looked fit, she revealed that she had "two more mouth surgeries even after that photo was taken". She says that she had been "pretty unlucky". 

"As of now, I am able to chew again," she says, "but every time we thought it had cleared up, it came back again. I'd be in massive pain with my jaw swelling up, and at the same time I was getting these growths popping up on my eyeball. People should actually feel a little sorry for me."

Now that she has been well, she is looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving with her husband. "It's been a little tricky-wicky getting together," she says of balancing their busy schedules.

She revealed that she was shooting The Masked Singer in Los Angeles, and her husband was in Canada with Boston Blue. "So it's been tricky and difficult, which means Thanksgiving and Christmas will mean more to us than ever this year. It's just me and him, at home in Chicago, me cooking a bird, and enjoying each other," she says. 

The best part? She says she will be able to enjoy much more than just mashed potatoes now that her mouth infections have cleared up. "I think I'm past the storm. I'm about to chow down," she says.

<h2>Can Dental Problems Lead To Eye Infections?</h2>

While McCarthy did not say what she actually had, she did refer that it all started with a "failed ceramic dental implant". Experts point out that due to their anatomical proximity, the eyes and teeth share many nerve and vascular connections. This is why, eye problems could follow a tooth infection. 

An infection or a dental abscess of the tooth can easily by continuity spread and be the cause of uveitis, or the infection of uvea. It can also cause other infections in the tear duct, the orbit, lower eyelid, or more. 

Studies have also shown that several roots of "spread" due to the infected tooth. For instance, infections in the incisors and canines will spread through the blood or cell. Whereas infections in premolars and molars spread further through the maxillary sinuses. There are 10 to 20% of maxillary sinusitis of dental origin.

Wisdom teeth can reach the lower orbital tissue of the eye, and infections and dental abscesses could spread by the subperiosteum or the set of layers of the periphery of the bones, along with the upper jaw to the tear duct. The infection or abscess can also open a look through the lower edge of the eye socket. This case is quite exceptional except in the case of severe sinusitis.
