Barodontalgia: caught between the clouds and the waves.
Abstract
Those individuals interested in diving and flying are often more susceptible to a condition known as barodontalgia: tooth sensitivity or pain caused by a change in pressure. More specifically, the discomfort is caused by a change in ambient pressure, which affects liquids and gases within the body. Diagnosis is based on relevant questions and treatment is based on clinical findings.
