Brief Answer:
Hearing loss after a tooth extraction can occur but it is not typical

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Experiencing sudden hearing loss shortly after receiving dental extraction is very rare, but can occur.

Hearing loss can also be caused by tooth infection or abscesses.

It is not typical.

In this case, I suggest to go at the emergency room to take proper treatment.

Early medical care is needed to help in recuperation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
