I was on your website and wondering if dizziness might be an after-effect of tooth extraction.
Reply: -----------------------
I suppose a recent dental extraction could cause dizziness because of pain or because of side effects of medication such as pain medication. But if you are wondering whether the inner ear could be adversely affected due to a problem with the dental extraction the answer would be very unlikely.
