What could be causing my friends tongue to still be numb 2 weeks after having her wisdom teeth removed?

She spoke to her dentist and they said it could possibly be nerve damage and it may last up to a year or be permanent. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this before? Is there any way she could sue them or anything of the such as well?

Answer #1

could sue them or anything of the such as well?

Answer #2

Maybe after effects of the anesthesia?

Answer #3

One of my friends experienced something similar. The doctor is right it is nerve damage and it’ll take a long while before it goes away. I don’t think she can sue them, because the documents that you sign which tells you about the procedures actually mentions the nerve damage as a side effect.

Oh and people READ the question that she asked, not just the heading.

Answer #4

Yea probably to much novacaine.
