I've tried ear plugs but that makes the sound coming from inside worse

You need ear plugs that conform to the shape of your ear canal when your mouth is open. I use the foam ones

That was my concern. I’m going to try safety ear muffs next time. Be read recommendations elsewhere to choose ones with a good seal but deep ear wells which helps reduce the occlusive effect. I haven’t needed any dental drilling yet and that’s my biggest concern.
