Barodontalgia, commonly known as tooth squeeze, is a pain in a tooth caused by a change in ambient pressure. The pain usually ceases at return to the original pressure. [1] [2] [3] Dental barotrauma is a condition in which such changes in ambient pressure cause damage to the dentition.
Lateral periodontitis (which is usually without any thermal sensitivity and sensitive to biting) can cause pulpitis and the tooth becomes sensitive to cold. [10]: 2–9 Non-dental sources of pain often cause multiple teeth to hurt and have an epicenter that is either above or below the jaws.
The most common trigger is cold, [4] with 75% of people with hypersensitivity reporting pain upon application of a cold stimulus. [3] Other types of stimuli may also trigger pain in dentin hypersensitivity, including: Thermal – hot and cold drinks and foods, [7] cold air, coolant water jet from a dental instrument. Electrical – electric ...

The first publication to document a change in pain perception associated with the weather was the American Journal of the Medical Sciences in 1887. This involved a single case report describing a person with phantom limb pain, and it concluded that "approaching storms, dropping barometric pressure and rain were associated with increased pain complaint."
Pulpitis can often create so much pressure on the tooth nerve that the individual will have trouble locating the source of the pain, confusing it with neighboring teeth, called referred pain. The pulp cavity inherently provides the body with an immune system response challenge, which makes it very difficult for a bacterial infection to be ...
The pain associated with pulp necrosis is often described as spontaneous. [15] Hot temperatures are reported to have exacerbating factors, and cold temperatures are said to soothe this pain. In some cases, the pain presents as a long dull ache as this is due to necrosis of the apical nerves being the last part of the pulp to necrose.
