Aerodontalgia

Aerodontalgia is caused by changes in pressure and temperature inside an airplane during takeoff and landing.

Aerodontalgia is a medical term that describes physical pain that occurs with changes in atmospheric pressure. These pains can be very severe and can occur in both the head and teeth. However, aerodontalgia must be distinguished from other types of toothache. Aerodontalgia is another type of pain called toothache. Thus, aerodontalgia is a branch of toothache, but it can be caused by other reasons. For example, changes in atmospheric pressure on an airplane.

Many people experience aerodontalgic pain when flying on an airplane.



Aerodontalgia (Aeroabdoughgia) is a type of toothache that occurs when atmospheric pressure changes at high altitudes. Aerodontalgia affects about two-thirds of people who experience toothache under conditions of a sharp change in air pressure. This type of toothache has a number of features associated with the unusual phenomenon of high-altitude odontogenic infections (VGIO). The fact is that at altitudes above 2 thousand meters some hypoxia and hypercapnia occurs, in response to which the body turns on breathing regulation mechanisms to ensure adequate gas exchange function.

Due to severe pain, patients cannot engage in everyday life; many limit their activity to grocery shopping. The clinical picture of this type of toothache resembles acute dental pathology, with the main cause being transient hypoxemia during rapid ascent and deflation of air. It is worth noting that both adults and children are susceptible to aerodontalgia. The most common factors influencing the development of this condition are: dental hypersthesia or trigeminal neuritis, as well as other diseases of the oral cavity.



Currently, many people suffer from aerodontalgia - those who often travel by plane. Often its symptoms appear at ski resorts. This disease involves the appearance of severe pain in the dental system when climbing in the mountains or immediately after takeoff on an airliner.

The cause of aeridontagia is usually an increase in pressure in the atmosphere. After all, this affects the bone and vascular system of the oral cavity, which leads to a change in the position of the teeth. It can also cause destruction of healthy tissue and pain.

However, many still believe that any oral disease affects only the condition of the teeth, but not other human organs. However
