Extra-dimensional theories contain a number of almost degenerate states at each Kaluza-Klein level. If extra dimensional momentum is at least approximately conserved then the phenomenology of such nearly degenerate states depends crucially on the mass splittings between KK modes. We calculate the complete one-loop radiative corrections to KK masses in general 5 and 6 dimensional theories. We apply our formulas to the example of universal extra dimensions and show that the radiative corrections are essential to any meaningful study of the phenomenology. Our calculations demonstrate that Feynman diagrams with loops wrapping the extra dimensions are well-defined and cutoff independent even though higher dimensional theories are not renormalizable.
