Specialist surgeon of TMJ/tinnitus combo?
« on: May 08, 2013, 10:29:06 AM »
I have bad TMJ (had it for 10 years, got worse recently) and also tinnitus that became very severe recently as my jaw deteriorated.  My life has fallen apart and I have had to quit both work and school to take care of this.

I am investigating (and have researched nearly every) treatment for tinnitus, so I don't need an education on what it is or what is available to treat it, but I'm wondering if there is a maxillofacial surgeon (or maybe an ENT) who specializes in somatic tinnitus induced by jaw/neck problems?

I have tried many other things and surgery may be my only recourse.  I feel like I have a raw, exposed nerve in my jaw and it has made the ringing so much worse.  Please, if anyone can help me, I would be most grateful!

Thank you!
