Teeth clenching??: One of the reasons for tinnitus - ringing in the ears - is teeth clenching. Trigeminal nerve that controls jaw closing muscles also has a branch that controls tensor tympani muscle that controls ear drum tension. Hence the connection. Have an evaluation by a dentists with expertise in treating temporo mandibular dysfunction (tmd) to check this.

You probably can't: Unless your ringing is due to certain medications or recent noise exposure, the odds are you will continue to have ringing, a very annoying and often long-lasting symptom which is caused by a large variety of things.

Unfortunately: There really isn't any way to stop ringing. However, you should see your ENT doctor and make sure there isn't a serious medical cause for to it. If the ringing is making it hard to sleep, a white noise generator may help.

See your doctor: These symptoms can only be adequately diagnosed only after a thorough evaluation by your doctor. This may include labs and other satudies. Once all of the information is in, your doctor can let you know what's going on, and what to do to help you.

Ringing in Ears: There is currently no treatment to stop ringing in ears. The ringing can be alleviated if your hearing test reveals hearing loss pattern that can be help with hearing aids. If you have not done so already, see your local ear nose and throat specialist for examination and hearing tests.

See ENT: there are many potential reasons to consider with ear ringing or tinnitus (hearing loss, cardiovascular, medication, infectious, middle ear process, inner ear process, neoplasticism, etc) so I would recommend a thorough exam and hearing test with an ENT. In many cases the reason is quite benign but an ENT may help with treatment or coping methods.
