Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pressure from ear to jaw along with dizziness can be due to inner ear infection leading to the following symptoms of pressure from jaw to ear while tingling sensation in the body can be due to causes like Vitamin B 12 deficiency, peripheral neuropathy etc...

As far as extraction of tooth is concerned, it is generally not seen to cause dizziness or any other side effects but is needed to be done only after proper evaluation of the other conditions so that it can be confirmed that you do not have any risk in getting tooth extracted.

So my suggestion is to first of all consult a Physician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like x ray MRI SCAN and also complete blood picture can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
