A member asked:

Could tmj be the cause of meniere? or it's only give similar symptoms?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

TMJ disorder: usually causes pain on motion. Meniere's disease usually causes vertigo. I don't think the two are related, even if they affect organs that are in anatomically close proximity.

No: No. TMJ problems can cause subjective, but not actual hearing loss. TMJ can cause imbalance, but not true vertigo.
