In mid March I had a
septocaine injected lower left, by a hygenist for cleaning. About 3 minutes after the injection my jaw locked, not only did the jaw lock, but my tongue went numb to the point where it would not move, my throat went numb and I could not swallow, I was numb all the way up through the temple. It wore off after 8.5 hours, but my jaw has been out of place since that time. The pain has become progressively worse and has spread to the right side as well.
