Going to have tooth pulled out soon - does anyone know if the anesthetic injection can worsen tinnitus

thnx for all replies

I can only speak for myself and say that it has made absolutely no difference to my T.

But, you will be well aware that ANYTHING can set T off on its nasty travels if it wants to - if you are feeling a bit low it will rub its hands together in glee and give you a bit of a worse time!!!

Funnily enough I am as well , in fact I have been waiting for ages for this rotten appointment .The only things that I have ever found to affect tinnitus are louds noise and moods ...I think I did protect my ears last time I had the drill at the Dentist though ( ands when I go to the barbers )

Take care

Not in my experience, no effect on T whatsoever.

I didn't find dentist procedure affected my T ok with both anaesthetic and drill noise....my only problem is when they lower you backwards in the chair it gives me a bit of vertigo so the dentist puts the chair back and I lower myself down into it....find that's easier for me....he's very understanding bless him....I have got to have a cap in the new year I have a temporary filling at the moment but I will have to get it done....just can't face it so he said I could wait but that it would need doing in the new year....I'm building up my courage lol 😂
