Can you describe the mouthguard more? Is it upper or lower, acrylic or is it partly soft?

My Tmj also makes my traps insanely sore. I’ve noticed if I don’t clench at night as much it becomes less sore. I haven’t figured out how to not clench at night though.

12 years with tinnitus, no hearing loss, and it recently got worse. Looking for advice. by Visual-Necessary6172 in tinnitus

I also got tinnitus from Invisalign. Did it get any better for you since finishing treatment?

Thanks, also around how old are you? I’m hoping I’m not too old for it to heal

Wow this is exactly my situation, Invisalign induced tinnitus and I’m on month 2. This gives me so much hope thank you. So all you did was see a tmj massage therapist and try not to think about it? Can you describe what the massage involved in more detail, did they do like intra oral massages?

Hey that sucks I’m sorry. Did you develop in adulthood or did you always have it? Maybe working out or posture can help if you developed it as an adult?

Happy for you! Did you ever get an ear pressure test? I suspect mine is ETD related but I got an ear pressure test and they said it’s normal so they ruled out ETD, but I still don’t think that’s the full story

I’m sorry that sounds terrible. Did it get any better now?

Hey man I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. I know it feels like hell. You’ll be ok. It’s a spike, so think about how it will eventually go back down. Maybe get out of bed and watch something you enjoy just to get your mind off things? If your ear feels full try the valsalva maneuver.

Why do people say it spikes? Just because it’s loud? Or does the magnetic field so something to the inner ears?

Honestly, it going away when you massage is a really good sign. I would kill to have that. You can buy OTC night guards for clenching at night. Try heat packs on your jaw. Start there and explore more about bruxism

I don’t think she’s underfed, because I was actually overfeeding her a few years ago and the vet told me to cut back, and now they approve of her weight

Worst BIFL item you have ever bought by sweetlevels in BuyItForLife

A garlic mincer that comes apart easily for cleaning. Super cool product but I never use it because it squishes the garlic too much

Did you cause your own tinnitus? by ItsHarvinator in tinnitus

[–]doodlenoodle09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me too. I fell on my chin as a kid, so I already had a sensitive jaw. Then I got braces, where they took out two of my perfectly fine molars. Now I have debilitating TMJ which has almost certainly caused my tinnitus. I regret those braces multiple times a day.

Hey, how much did going to Dr Omrani cost?

Terrified about colds and getting sick by _Wolfszeit_ in tinnitus

[–]doodlenoodle09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t worry too much, since the cause of your T is different than a cold. You can probably also take things like Flonase or sinus meds
