    Abstract:
    For understanding the problems in the head and neck region of divers, knowledge of some physical laws is needed. Primarily, problems of diving are related to barotrauma: tissue-damage by pressure. The most frequent problems encoutered with diving are problems in closed cavities, such as in ears, teeth, and sinuses. Other problems occuring are those of temporomandibular joints, facial nerves, and oral mucosal tissues.
