  • Hello Friends! This video is all about Tinnitus - also known as ear ringing - and TMJ Disorders - also known as TMJ/TMD or TMJD. Tinnitus is ringing in one or both ears that can be a low roar or a high squeal. It can be very manageable OR it can be debilitating.
    Tinnitus is the one symptom that unfortunately does not respond predictably to our treatment.
    Typical symptoms that come to mind when we think of TMJ Disorders are clicking, popping, crackling noises in the jaw, episodes of the jaw catching or locking, headaches, neck pain, ear pain, and jaw pain.
    Please watch this video for more information!
    I hope this video proves informative to all of you!

    This channel is all about TMJ disorders - what they are, how they manifest, what to do about them and how they relate to other issues that may be going unnoticed in the body such as tongue tie, sleep apnea, ADHD, and more! I will also be posting about being a dentist and a working mommy to two wonderful children. Thank you and I hope you enjoy my videos!

    I have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos syndrome (hEDS) and I’ve had TMJ issues for such a long time. Because jaw alignment and TMJ issues are very related to my cervical spine instability I can experience changes in my tinnitus based on things like my jaw placement, jaw clenching, head tilt/position, and neck position. Thank you for these videos as I’m putting together daily routines of massage, strength building, and specific, but GENTLE, stretches on areas of tension as I’m extremely drconditioned and I’m trying to get my health back to a better spot. Thank you so much!

    Hello. Thank you so much for posting these videos. I believe I have watched all of them and they have really helped me understand what is going on with my jaw. If I didn't live in the DC area I would definitely be in your office. In one of your videos you said to contact you and you might be able to recommend a local dentist that has sound methodology similar to your office. Do you have any recommendations for the greater DC area? Thank you!

    • @dparsons0617
      @dparsons0617 2 роки тому +2

      Thanks for the reply. Started last November with fullness in my left ear. About week later I lost a lot of my ability to hear high frequency sounds. Low frequency is still fine but lost some high frequency in the left ear. A couple more weeks later and high frequency tinnitus started in the left ear. Another couple weeks past and I started having persistent lightheadedness. My balance is fine but I feel lightheaded all day every day. All of those symptoms persist to this day. What made me think I have tmjd is my lower jaw deviates to the left on opening and then draws a sort of s shape on the way closed. Looking for doctors in the DC area. Thank you so much for your time!

    Hello. Thank you much for this videos! Do you have any recommendation of a doctor office I could visit in NYC? I have Tinnitus that started 1 year ago, I felt fullness in my right ear. Got a bad infection from it and I lost a lot of my ability to hear high frequency sounds. Low frequency is still good but I also lost some hearing. At the moment ear fullness sensation is even worst than the Tinnitus itself. for a coupe months I was having very bad Vertigo episodes. My balance seems to be fine now but I feel lightheaded in cars sometimes. All of those symptoms persist to this day. What made me think I have tmjd is my lower jaw deviates to the right on opening and then draws a sort of s shape on the way closed. I feel and hear a click on my right ear and also some numbness in that side of my face. Looking for doctors in New York City. Thank you so much for your time!

    I am so happy that I found your channel I was so depressed because I have developed so many symptoms and I could not understand what was happening. It started with ear pain, then I developed i floaters and now I have ringing in my ears. My dentist did tell me that I grind my teeth at night, but it’s all making sense now that these are all related to TMJ.
    Are there any doctors in South Florida that you might know who can treat TMJ?

    Hey Dr. Priya. I’m currently a physical therapist student and I’ve suffered from TMJD for a few years now due to a traumatic event.
    What I’ve found the most useful is getting Botox shots on my jaw muscles. For half a year, I had no tinnitus at all. Have you ever heard of a similar case like mine?

    • @theTMJdoc
      @theTMJdoc  Рік тому +1

      No I have not heard that before but thats wonderful that you didn’t have tinnitus for 6 months! Did it come back full force after that? Did you get Botox again?

    • @jamesmatthewcastillo2540
      @jamesmatthewcastillo2540 Рік тому

      @@theTMJdoc Hey Doc, thanks for replying to my comment.
      When the botox wore off, the tinnitus came back intermittently. While I did consider it again, I voted against it because I felt like I was doing myself a disservice if I didn't figure out the root of the problem.
      After researching, I was able to deduce that I grind my teeth at night and day from stress and anxiety. Ultimately, what worked for me the best, in the long run, is taking care of my physical, spiritual, and mental health.
      Right now, I have chronic tinnitus in both ears but it's at a baseline where I can't hear it unless it's in a quiet room. It only increases during stressful and anxiety-filled days. With my background in Physical Therapy, I am hoping I can specialize in TMJD so I can help others out!

I woke up one morning in December 2020 and had this strange vibration and fullness in my left ear. Prior to that I had a very bad cold and mucus. Our dog happen to pass away in late June and I cried nearly all day for 3 days. My left ear became clogged. Absolute no hearing for one day. The next day it was semi clogged and I took a Sudafed. The 3rd day I woke up with completely normal hearing for 5 days. I was painting my livingroom and noticed some sinus issuse and it came back
