Does anyone know about the connection between ear problems and teeth?

The ears and teeth share common nerves and there is a connection between them. Feeling something in your ear usually means a fluid build up. If there is pain involved, it is often hard to determine whether it’s due to a tooth or gum issue or the ear itself, I am assuming the Doctors you have visited are ENT specialists. If you haven’t been seen by an ENT go there first. I don’t know what the purpose of those creams are..do you? If you get cleared by an ENT, then visit a dentist. I would be interested in the names of all these creams you are being prescribed. And also, what exactly do you feel when you put your finger in your ear.

@nodine4 I see from your writings that this has been going on for over one year. This must be really distressing.
Have you ever visited the doctor while you had the things in your ear and had them attempt to remove it or otherwise relieve the symptoms?
Have you tried alternatives to pulling things out of your ear? For example, chewing gum or yawning could relieve the feelings of pressure. Also, you could try using a warm towel or heat pack over the ear or just below it to calm the nerves that are causing this sensation.
You were also scheduled last year for a neurological examination. What were the findings?

Yes, there is a connection .. also include the jawbone. Of the jaw temporomandibular disorder (TMD) commonly called TMJ. The teeth .. there can be infection or disease of the gums.

Since February 2nd I have been dealing with jaw and tooth pain with sensitive gums. All started with me awakening to me pushing my right jaw very hard into my pillow. I seemed okay when I got up. Then when I started to eat breakfast .. oh the pain in my jaws and teeth! Later the sides of my throat and around my ears were visibly swollen. Swallowing problems happened. I used a heating pad and that helped get the swelling down. Even though my jaw is in place I am having headaches, ear pain and ear ringing. My dentist did something to help my bite .. one tooth especially was bruise. That is gone now. I still have general achy feeling in jaws and teeth. I am using toothpaste to ease my gums. I was ordered a mouth guard and have not been able to use it .. it presses a tender place in my jaw at gland duct. Dentist will adjust guard in a couple of weeks.

I saw my personal doctor last week so he could help discern if my neck joint pain was my usual problem or was it just strained in this TMJ problem. He thinks the TMJ and he gave me steroid and toradol injections which helped some. I guess it will just take more time.

Hopefully soon your problem will be solved. It may take multiple visits with more than one doctor .
