Ringing in the ear

I had a root canal on one of my front teeth done and I was wearing temporary crowns for almost two months on my both of my front teeth; I never had this problem with my ears before it only happen after this procedure ; I went to the the ENT I had a hearing test done & everything else he told there's little pressure on my left ear but no infection he prescribed me some sinus  drops which hasn't help me at all ; like three days ago I had my new porcelain crowns placed on my front teeth & the ringing stop for that day I though to myself maybe that's it it was the temporary crowns that was making my ears to buzz like that ; that day it was fine , but the next day my ears started to have this hissing sounds again & now even my neck & my jaw hurts !!! I want to know if a bad root canal is the root of my problems or keeping the temporary crowns for so long ?? I'm very depressed because of this .

If you never experience tinnitus before, and this occurrence may be a coincidence or related to temporary or permanent crown . Change of bite, occlusion , may be a trigger of activation of myofascial trigger point of masseter or lateral pterygoid muscle, which may contribute to tinnitus. Seeing an Orofacial pain specialist is advised.
