Can Tooth Decay Cause Headaches With Vertigo And Dizziness?
I have a crown that I had done in Mexico. The dentist here in NM x-rayed the tooth and it shows substantial decay. I have an appointment for June 21 to remove the crown to get rid of the decay and recrown the tooth. I'm not sure this is related but in May I had a slight headache for two weeks, and now I have been experiencing slight vertigo and dizziness in the last two weeks, which seems to be getting worse. I have a doctors appt tomorrow, but could my tooth be the cause even though there is no pain or seemingly no infection that I can tell?

Thanks for posting the query,
This could be in relation to the decay you have developed in the infected tooth, since you have appointment with the Dentist tomorrow till then you can take tab almox C BD, tab tab nimi BD for 3-5 days and continue with the medications after consulting your Dentist.
Take care!

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The head ache can come because of the refferred pain from the tooth infection. But the vertigo and dizziness is not related to the tooth infection. Consult a endodontist and prosthodontist to get the RCT and crown done. For the dizziness and vertigo consult a neurophysician.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.

it could be possible that the underlying tooth has decayed to an extent of forming pus underneath . the pus not finding any way to ooze out exerts pressure causing pain.
go to your dentist and get that crown removed and treated endodontically ( get rct done )
