I believe you'll be fine. The ultrasonic tool (for scaling) makes a loud shrieking sound, but the other tools are less noisy and should not do any damage when used for short periods of time.

I would recommend to avoid the ultrasonic cleaning if offered. It's the only thing that gave me a scary spike in 14 years of tinnitus. Never had any problem with the other dental works though (fillings and wisdom tooth removal).

Agree. Drilling was ok with NC headphones but they didn't work for ultrasonic. Too high a frequency which changes rapidly.

I've had tinnitus for 18 years. Only get a manual clean - the ultrasonic cleaning tool is a nightmare. Don't let them put that in your mouth ever!
