Oral Cavity Procedures

Did you know that approximately 4% of the population experiences some form of dizziness? There are many causes of dizziness, but one common cause is a condition called vestibular dysfunction. Vestibular dysfunction refers to a problem with the inner ear or brain that causes problems with balance and eye movements. One of the most common treatments for this type of issue is a vestibuloplasty. In Florida, the Oral Surgery Center of Lighthouse Point is one of the most highly-rated vestibuloplasty providers.

What Is a Vestibuloplasty?

A vestibuloplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a problem with the inner ear. The most common reason for this surgery is to repair a hole in the eardrum (perforation). Other reasons include:

Removing bone spurs that are blocking the ear canal

Repairing a tear in the eardrum

Removing a tumor from the inner ear

The goal of surgery is to improve hearing and relieve symptoms such as dizziness or vertigo.

Symptoms of Vestibular Dysfunction

The most common symptom of vestibular dysfunction is dizziness. Patients may notice other symptoms that are causing discomfort. Other symptoms may include:

Nausea and vomiting

Loss of balance

Difficulty walking

Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)

Hearing loss

How Is a Vestibuloplasty Performed?

A vestibuloplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia. This means you'll be asleep during the surgery. Dr. Jennifer Schaumberg will then make an incision in the ear to access the inner ear. Once the problem area is located, she will repair it using stitches or other methods. In some cases, a bone graft may be necessary to repair the damage.


After the vestibuloplasty is complete, you will be taken to a recovery room to rest. You may experience some pain and swelling after the surgery, but this can be controlled with medication. Most people are able to go home the same day as their surgery.
