As an alternative (which is better IMHO), you may consider specializing  
Toplevel instead of Frame for your dialog:

class MyDialog(Toplevel):
   ...

In tk/Tkinter, a Frame is a generic container for widgets; it is not what  
is usually called a window. Creating an instance of Frame when there is no  
window to contain it happens to create a new one, but it is a side-effect,  
and you should not rely on it.

Once you've done that, you can simply write:

self.destroy()

to delete the window.

No problem.
