Please tell me, could a bad tooth give you vertigo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: An abscess near your upper molars can affect your sinuses and possibly your inner ear. Your inner ear has a fluid-filled structure that affects your balance. If the damage or pressure from the abscess is near this area, then you can possibly become lightheaded or unbalanced.
