If you’re flying, you’re likely to experience some tooth pain because of air pressure imbalances. This occurs when air enters your teeth through a crack, cavity, or space in your filling, and then it expands because of the pressure changes while flying. This type of toothache is common, but it should go away when you land and only affect pre-existing problems.
If you have a toothache while flying and it doesn’t go away when you land, rinse your mouth and use floss to dislodge anything that might be stuck in your teeth. You can take painkillers to help with the pain. However, if the ache lingers and you can’t wait for a fix until you return home, you may need to see a dentist.
