Topics:post-dental work TMJ or ear infection

Had a filling 1 month ago. Bite was off, went back in for adjustment

Bite felt better but pain near ear got worse and tooth very sensitive

All started feeling better after three weeks but then severe ear pain started

Outside/front of ear felt swollen

Doc prescribed ear antibiotic drops b/c he said it was very slightly swollen inside but he also thought it may be TMJ

Dentist adjusted bite again

Pain still bad (400mg advil X 4/day). Ear feels clogged for 3 days

Dentist says see doc. Doc says see dentist! UGH
