See an ENT: Your TMJ may not be the cause of your tinnitus and so you may need to seek out a more definitive diagnosis. Did your TMJ get a CBCT scan or MRI prior to flushing? Did you seek a second opinion prior to treatment? I'd consider working with your current doctor to help guide towards a possible solution!

Tinnitus: is very common, affecting an estimated 50 million adults in the U.S. Tinnitus isn't a condition itself — it's a symptom. The best way to find a solution is to contact the American Tinnitus Association for a specialist near you. Here is the link:http://www.ata.org/

ENT Doc: TMJ related tinnitus is usually not prominent. I recommend you see an ENT doc to assess your tinnitus.
