It's unlikely that fillings would ever crush, but theoretically an extremely badly made filling could crush from the pressure of a deep descent. A more common dental issue associated with diving is empty pockets of air in a filling expanding as you ascend and causing pain.
It's worth mentioning that you're a Scuba diver to your dentist, and check out DAN(.org?) (Divers Alert Network) for dental health related issues.
AnswerNo, fillings do not crush, and no, they do not trap air. This is an urban myth. There has never been even one authenticated case of either ever recorded. If you think its your teeth, its most likely your ears, believe it or not, its really hard to tell the difference.
Answer Improvement.
Far more frequent than problems with dental work are sinus problems. One old, hoary way of testing if your toothache is really a sinus problem is to hop on the heel of one foot on the side that hurts. If it throbs every hop, it's sinus and not dentistry.
I realize this sounds like voodoo. The science of it is that a swollen sinus cavity will press down on the same nerve plexus that hurts when an upper tooth gets problematic. However, that bouncing motion will really throb with a swollen sinus but won't do a thing to a tooth ache.
Doubt me? Try it :}
Another answer
I don't think a filling can be crushed, but if it is fitted badly and there is a pocket of air underneath the filling there is a possibility that as you ascend the air will expand causing the filling to pop out, however I think this rarely happens. Someone mentioned telling your dentist that you are a diver, but unless they are a diver themselves they will have no idea why you are telling them that so you will probably jut get an answer along the lines of'oh really? ? That'snice'
There is no proof to say that a tooth implant can break at depth. The real concern of tooth breakage is if there is any air trapped in the tooth. If the implant is a good one, with no trapped air, there should be no problems with injury. If there is air trapped, that air may compress on descent, causing problems. The more air, the greater the risk of damage.

In 1950, scuba changed from primarily breath holding to just underwater scuba, technological advances in the 50's create the bathyscaphe, which reached a depth of over 13,000, and Jaques Cousteau was introduced to the American public and spurred interest in scuba diving.
You can scuba dive if you have the contaceptive implant. There are no activity restrictions associated with this method.
No, but "scuba-diving" is a verb.
Sure, it just depends on the location and your depth, because some bodies of water don't have turtles and they are at a certain depth.

I think you mean BUSEAR, which means to go scuba diving. El buseo = scuba diving. Buseador = scuba diver.
I am pretty sure that GreatWebGames.com has the Stunt Scuba diving game.
the minimum age for scuba diving is 5 years of age because younger children may be frightened by the breathing we have to do during scuba diving.
