teeth probz

[babe114]

i just had five of my teeth extracted last week due to abcesses in my mouth that were causing me to have strange sensations in the right side of my head (caused me to have a panic attack). now i feel a little light headed or dizzy..just a weird feeling so i was wondering if its still due to the infection not being completely gone or do i have a more serious problem??

having so much teeth extracted can cause alot of pain and side effects that yoou have u might still have all that due to the infection because it takes time for the infection to be fully gone after having your teeth being extracted your infection is not gonna be gone right away

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Either there is infection lingering or the dentist hit the Vagus nerve (a branch) during extraction causing a vasovagal attack, or the infection, swelling, and extraction resulted in TMJ.  
At times a mouth infection can change the pressure of the Eustachian tube that connects ear to the back of the mouth. If it is blocked Eustachian tube, then doing a valsalva maneuver (Done by taking a deep breath and blowing while pinching your nostrils and closing your mouth) will help. This will help clear the secretions in the tube that connects the back of your throat with your ear.
Since I cannot examine you and know other related conditions you may be having, nor is a detailed history possible on net, I have listed the various possibilities that should be looked into. Please consult your PCP/dentist/ENT for primary examination followed by proper referral.
Take care!
