Thank you so much, Doc, for you fast response! You must know how much this is appreciated.
This cavity was filled with tooth-colored material. I do have some old 'silver' mercury fillings in other teeth. This tooth used to have a mercury filling, but I had it changed years ago. This new cavity, which turned out to be two as another current filling in that same tooth was broken, required a big dose of anesthesia. I almost fainted. The actual ear trouble started a week or so later. I have had tinnitus since I was young, but now that the tube is closing, the volume of the ringing has tripled in that ear and that is what bothers me considerably now that the other symptoms have calmed down. The ENT specialist was rather unsympathetic. There is also some tenderness in the jaw near the ear.
Thank you again for any suggestions.
