Does anyone have an explanation?
I ended up with permanent nerve damage after having dental procedures. Now I visit a website for that and am shocked how many people have had similar experiences...meaning life altering nerve pain after dental work.
I would proceed with extreme caution. Do NOT trust your dentist to inform you of this possibility. Hopefully everything is fine, but consider talking it over with an oral surgeon (just talking) and a neurologist.
