Main outcome measures were prevalence of orofacial pain and odontocrexis. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p> Two hundred divers at four dive centres on the north-east coast of Australia were asked to complete a questionnaire that requested information regarding diving experience and facial pain and dental symptoms experienced during diving. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p> One hundred and twenty-five completed questionnaires were returned (63% response rate). The prevalence of reported orofacial pain was 44%. Twenty-one per cent reported toothache, 27% sinus pain, 16% jaw pain, and 12% other pain. The prevalence of odontocrexis was less than 1%. Less than 1% had lost a filling when diving.
