ABI-RACHED, Giselle P. C. et al. Barodontalgia: two case reports. []. , 66, 2, pp. 142-146. ISSN 0004-5276.

The aim of this study was to report two cases of barodontalgia, which is an event that involves an increase or decrease of the atmospheric pressure in diving or air travel, causing symptomatology. The clinical cases reported barodontalgia in the presence of vital and necrotic pulp tissues. Endodontic treatment was performed in the tooth involved, followed by coronal restoration. It was concluded that the dentist must have the knowledge about barodontalgia in order to consider it in the differential diagnosis of common dental pain.
