Temporary auditory threshold shift following sophomore operative technique laboratory

DC Bowman, LJ Blanchet, and DB Doemling

Twenty sophomore dental students were studied for the "temporary threshold shift" (TTS) due to exposure to the noise of high-speed dental headpieces during technique laboratory sessions. TTS was experienced at all four frequencies tested--8000, 6000, 4000, and 3000 hertz, but tended to be greater and of longer duration at the higher frequencies. Approximately one-fourth of the students still had some hearing loss 15 minutes after leaving the laboratory.
