Tinnitus
Did you know that many cases of tinnitus can be traced to underlying problems with the mouth and jaw?
If you suffer from the buzzing sounds of tinnitus, you’re not alone. An estimated 1 in 5 people is affected. While tinnitus can have several causes, it can often be traced to underlying problems with the mouth and jaw.

It may be your jaw, not your ear?
Tinnitus can manifest as hissing, buzzing, or ringing in the ears. The root cause is stimulation to the auditory nerve making you “hear” a constant ringing sound. In some cases, the trigger may actually stem from problems in your jaw.
The human jaw is one of the most complicated joints in the body. Located near the ears, its joint can generate over 260 pounds of force at the molars and yet relies on a delicate balance between the nerves and muscles. Disruptions in the jaw can trigger conditions such as tinnitus.
A new way to treat tinnitus?
It’s called the TruDenta Treatment System. The systems uses advanced diagnostic technology to analyze the mechanics of the head, neck, and jaw and identify sources inflammation and tension using:
- Bite force analysis
- Range of motion analysis
- Headache history and head health questionnaire
- Muscle exam
The treatment plan is tailored to address your symptoms and includes several FDA-cleared, painless therapies, such as ultrasound, low-level cold laser, microcurrent, and trigger point manipulation. Together these technologies provide a non-invasive, medication-free approach to manage pain and resolve underlying issues.
