How can I fix a "tooth Squeeze"??


Question:
I resently went scuba diving, and got what is known as a "tooth-squeeze" I would like to know how to fix it, i am going diving again in a few weeks, is it still okay to dive?

Answers:
You probably have an abscess that has not been diagnosed yet. It is also possible that you just have an old filling that needs to be replaced.

Go see your dentist and tell him/her which tooth was hurting and get it checked out. If you have an abscess, you would prefer not to dive for a while. (sorry) If it's just a bad filling, you'll be fine that same day.

If you are looking to dive in a few weeks, get in there this week and you will probably be okay by then.
