    Low Pitch Ringing/Hum Went Away After Using a Mouth Guard and Regular Jaw Massage

    Do you also have regular tinnitus? I started having the same low rumbling humming last week. Do you wear a soft or hard mouthguard? The hard plastic guard looks uncomfortable to sleep in.

    Tinnitus Caused by Braces

    I’ve had Invisalign for six months and when I finished my treatment none of my bite was right. I agreed to have another 13 trays to sort it out, but on the last two trays I started getting ringing in my left ear. It took me a while to realise it was actually my ear as it was just at night at...

    Could TMJ Be the Real Cause?

    ...and even a few of my front teeth are now completely flat because of the severity of my grinding. For the past few years, I have worn Invisalign style retainers while sleeping in order to keep my teeth straight. One added benefit is that I am no longer wearing down my teeth, but I am still...

    I'm assuming you are taking Flonase for the allergies, but if not, I would consider trying that. As far as Ibuprofen, it is a COX inhibitor that increases fluid retention; hence it spikes blood pressure and tinnitus. I've actually recently experimented with several COX inhibitors and they...

    Constant Tinnitus for More Than a Month from Going on a Long Run

    ...never paid too much attention. Unfortunately, this became suddenly constant. The main changes I can see over the last year: - I had an Invisalign treatment completed in April 2019 and afterwards being on the retainers - in November, I removed a wisdom tooth, I still have 2 of them but they...

    Tooth Implant Removal, Bone Grafting and More

    Dear Friends, I hope you could assist me with few questions I have based on your experience. Basically I wanted to get invisalign/ceramic braces cause I wanted to straighten my teeth and get a "perfect smile" in a way. Long story short - went to orto's office and they did an xray on me to make...

    Can't Pinpoint Root Cause for My Tinnitus and Hyperacusis — Need Help!

    ...had and I think they might've helped... Overall my tinnitus has reduced a lot to barely noticeable and only in one ear now. I also started Invisalign because I had a cross bite and overbite, so this could also be part of the cause but it will take months to know as it will be a 2 year...

    Diminished Tinnitus

    ...and the doctors saw no trauma but it was what it was and I had the root canals. Tissue was dead,dead,dead. Could have been from the invisalign but who knows. I had a 3D xray taken at the Endodontist and he in passing mentioned a thickening in one of my sinuses which made me see my friend, a...

    I'm sorry for your suffering. I wonder if you have tried mouth guards for night time clenching. Especially since it's unilateral, it definitely seems like TMJ could be a strong co-factor. Another product that I like a lot is this, which I've used for both hot and cold compresses. I actually have...

    Tinnitus Caused by Bruxism

    Anybody Have Tinnitus So Bad It Feels Like the Back of Your Neck and Head Are Vibrating?

I believe mine is from my Invisalign treatment and I am going to ask my dentist to check and see if my jaw is out of alignment. I'm not sure of this is the cause of all of it, but...

    First Time Noticed Tinnitus After Coming Back from an MRI — TMJ Issues at Play?

    ...to my ear drum or anything. Prior to all this tinnitus nonsense, I've been a chronic clencher at night when I sleep even though I wear Invisalign retainers, so TMJ issues could be at play. I also definitely have some severe hypochondriac/possible OCD behaviors that I am currently looking...

    Bad Somatic Tinnitus Spike from Jaw Modulations

    ...having a horrible spike in my right ear. I can’t figure out what’s going on. However, I have very sore, painful jaws. For years I used Invisalign and you could tell that I was clenching and chewing them up at night. I also had a crown put on February 2020 - left side - and after that...

    Bad Somatic Tinnitus Spike from Jaw Modulations

    So sorry you're going through this. I just don't know what to say, because, as usual, I'm also having more stuff added to an already full plate. Because I've seen how this is seemingly going to go on, I've decided to first volunteer, then got a job at the volunteer place. I just hope I can work...

    Tinnitus Caused by Bruxism

    Thank you so much for your respond. Our stories seems to start very similar. Before I got t I didnt even know bruxism could cause it, but somehow its comforting to know that t is a symptom of something and when you find the cause you can try your best to get rid of it. It sounds like yours is...

    The Perfect Storm

The treatment kind of primed my anxiety I suppose. The ortho/hack messed up the “minor” enamel reduction between my...

    Chiropractor Made Tinnitus Worse?

To move to the next phase (which is a bridge and Invisalign), the dentist states that I need to get issues with my neck addressed.

    The Sound of TMJ Related Tinnitus?

    ...3. For the past two years, I've been told by my dentist to get an orthotic/nightguard as I have bruxism; also recommended braces or Invisalign as I have crooked teeth. Orthotic to prevent both the grinding, and to straighten my jaw which is very very slightly out of place per my...

    Another (New) Tinnitus Sufferer — What I Have Learned So Far

    ...ear only. It may have been because I was in a loud music venue, I am really not sure. About me: - 35 years old - Braces - I wrapped up Invisalign braces about 6 months ago. The alignment is not great, so my back right molar (same side as tinnitus) hits first, leaving the teeth on the left...

    10 Years of Misdiagnoses, Accidents, and Bad Habits Lead Me to Where I'm Now

    ...an engine noise that cycled through my ears - you name it, I had it. I did some experimenting and wearing my night guard and top+bottom Invisalign permanent retainers sets off the noises badly. I can increase them to peak volume within 20 minutes after wearing either ortho appliance, and they...

You can see that I chewed up my Invisalign and my jaws are very tight and click constantly. I get pain in my left ear and sometimes the right. Doctor says it is 100% TMJ related. My right...

    The Sound of TMJ Related Tinnitus?

    I did read somewhere here from a woman that had a very slight jaw misalignment, almost not noticable, that caused a constant high pitch tinnitus. She wore a nightguard for 2 years to correct her bite and the T. went away completly. Maybe it's worth looking into. Also there are few muscles in...
