Yesterday morning I had local anaesthetic around the front of my lower jaw. The injections were from canine to canine, I think, or perhaps first premolars.
Pain relief was very effective. Dentist said he hadn't used adrenaline (it makes me shake and feel panicky) so the effect would wear off quickly and I would be able to eat in an hour or two. But it took a good 4h before I could eat without dribbling, and my face still feels weird today. There's definitely some reduction in sensation, too.
Is this of concern? Should I do anything about it?
