Face drooping...starting to panic

[bedroomcushions]

Had a dental filling this morning at 10.30. When I left I noticed that once side of my mouth was really drooping like I had bells palsy. Assumed it would correct itself as the anaesthetic wore off. Numbs now nearly all gone but my face is still drooping. Is this normal or do I need to see a doc?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like Facial Nerve Palsy (FNP). Rare and most cases resolve within about 12 hours apparently. If you're concerned you should call the dentist and explain what has happened and see what they advise. I hope your symptoms improve soon OP.

Thanks will do x
