My partner had chest pains and after a blood test showed troponin levels of 18000 he also has a tooth infection . can the tooth infection cause this?

Method and units: The troponin level is not a reasonable number and the data you provided is likely to be incorrect. To answer your question, tooth infection would not increase the troponin level.
