Last year I went to get a root canal done. I never went back t o get a crown. Today I was chewing gum and it fell came out. Now there is a Hugh hole in my tooth . I leave for Africa this Thursday. Will the air pressure cause me pain. I went to dentist today. They advised me not to have it fill temporary until I get back. They told me it can no longer b saved. I m getting second opinion tomorrow. just wondering about flying if I get it taken out and flying with a hole in my tooth. thanks
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, If the tooth is root canal treated, so there are no chances of getting pain during flight, as you said that the tooth can no longer be saved for this you require a thorough clinical and radiological examination. It will be wise to go for a second opinion before you go for the extraction of the tooth. Hope this helps out. Regards...
