Wisdom tooth causing ear noise?

by Amanda0922, Nov 30, 2008 09:42AM
Hi there, my wisdom teeth are growing in crooked and sideways and I have a lot of jaw pain. I can hear clicking noises in each ear every time I swallow (for three months now). I was just wondering if it could be because of the wisdom teeth coming in? Thanks in advance to anyone who responds :)

Wisdom teeth are probably not the culprit of your tmj clicking. Seeing a tmj specialist is advised.

You're saying the reason I hear a clicking noise in my ears each time I swallow is because of my tmj? Does this mean my tmj is getting worse? I have had it all my life but have only had the ear issues for 3 months.

Clicking sound from tmj is generally associated with disc displacement . If there is no organic cause of ear symptoms identified by ent, tmj may be contributing factor of ear symptom.
