i was diving at black rock today and when i dived down about 2m my upper right tooth started hurting. the pain was to much to handle, so couldnt dive the whole time.  have you guys ever heard of this before? has this ever happened to any of you guys? what do i do to make it stop? |

if you have a cavity in your tooth it can cause pain due to the air presure build up in you tooth just like when it builds up in your ears |

you have a cavity in your tooth. better get it checked out quick. It can actually cause serious problem for scuba divers, Ive heard of teeth cracking b/c of this (whether it's true or not i dunno). Or do you just have a sensitive tooth? a bit of cold water getting on it will cause an ache... |

I get a little tooth pain if I'm not equalizing hard enough, if I give a bit more of a push then it goes away, but I'd say this is a different pain to what you're experiencing. Mine is kike a slight ache, not intense pain that I can't dive. |

equalizing has nothing to do with your teeth and you should certainly not be pushing an equalize. If you are experiencing aches in your teeth on a dive go and get them checked. |

It clearly has something to do with mine, because if I use the frenzel technique I get a dull ache, if I use valsalva then it doesn't seem to hurt. I can dive 10m using frenzel as long as i dont descend too fast. The pain isn't always there, but is more consistent if I don't use valsalva. |

Yeah, I also agree that you should get the cavity checked as soon as possible. I also had ignored the cavity for a long time and it turned out to be a deeper one after some time. I had to get the teeth extracted. Selected the best Torrance dentist for the treatment and he did a great job. |

I heard that it is highly undesirable to endure a toothache. This can cause a breakdown. It's true? |
