Hello,
Have you had your wisdom teeth evaluated by an oral surgeon? You should not be suffering many years with wisdom teeth. If they have not fully erupted and do not function, the surgeon will suggest removal unless there are complications with the root position. This is in addition to the normal risk associated with an extraction. If you have constant infections due to the wisdom teeth, that may cause discomfort and inflammation. This chronic condition should be eliminated. May be then balance can be affected. Chronic inflammation within the jaw can affect the ear as with the spread of infection and pressure created. Antibiotics and
anti-inflammatory medication may be needed for infected wisdom teeth. rinse with warm salt water. Chlorhexedine rinses may be helpful.
