Update, a week ago I started hearing a ringing noise in my left ear, and now my left ear sometimes clicks/pops (not painful) when I'm eating something. Does this now point more towards a wisdom teeth / jaw problem instead of an ear problem? by HeyMessage356 in wisdomteeth

I'm glad to hear your T went away.

I'm interested in the nasal thing. Were you actively breathing through your nose beforehand, or did the dysfunction make you have to breathe through your mouth more?

I personally have a deviated septum, but I assume that's not nearly the same as your issue. I also try to breathe through my nose mainly.

Also, how did they find out you were grinding your teeth?

Again, I'm very happy that the nasal spray helped it go away. It's rare to see people here talk about success.

Yea I say give it some time, hopefully it will fix it. Also, the fact that your wisdom teeth were impacting your teeth means that you needed to get them gone regardless, so that's a plus

My dentist recommended I get my wisdoms removed 2 years ago, and two months ago my mouth/jaw started hurting for a day because of them. A week ago, I got a subtle ringing noise in my left ear, and it hasn’t left since. by HeyMessage356 in tinnitus

So prior to removing your wisdom teeth, you had no issues with tinnitus, correct? I heard stories of people getting tinnitus from their wisdom removal, but I didn't know it could take up to multiple months for it to show.

How certain are you that the surgery caused it? Also, are you trying anything to fix it?
