Flying with a Toothache

Are you going on vacation this summer? If you have a toothache and your travel plans include flying, you might want to continue reading. Did you know that flying can cause an existing toothache to become worse? The concept is very simple and is much like that of your ears popping while there is a change in altitude and pressure. A toothache mid flight can be extremely uncomfortable with little to no options for relief. Not to mention, ruining the rest of your travel plans. If you have a toothache and are getting ready to travel by plane, you should take necessary action before taking off. Please feel free to give Dr. Norton’s office a call for an evaluation and enjoy your vacation.
