bit lip numb

I chipped a front tooth and broke a tooth in the back. My upper lip was tender but also somewhat numb for a bit, but the feeling is coming back. I still find I have difficulties with some words and have to concentrate to speak those words clearly. The letter "F" appears to be a little more difficult to pronounce. This all appears to be getting somewhat better; however, since the accident, my chin has been numb and does not feel like it has regained any feeling.

I had a root canal done on my back lower left tooth a couple of days ago. The paid from the root canal is moderate and seems to be normal, but I still have a little bit of numbness & tingling in my lip and my left front tooth feels completely numb! Is it normal to still feel numbness for this long? Also, it's not numb near the actual root canal, but rather closer to the front of my mouth.

Having a partially numb or tingley lip is better than a completely numb lip. It means that part of the nerve is working and should recover. Check back in with your dentist or oral surgeon. Good luck.

On top of that, I noticed that I was continuously spilling my drink down the side of face, whenever I took a drink. Monday I bit my lip, and have done so everyday since, Ouch! I finally see that my right side of my lip is drooping. It is not numb, but the muscles on that side of the face feels very relaxed, and if I concentrate, I can make my lip appear normal. Have any of you had this sort of symptom, meaning lip droop without numbness.

I get that quite often...mine is usually on the right side of my mouth...top side sometimes bottom... I get used to it after awhile...I don't find it sore though.

Now I continue to suffer from upper left lip problems. My lip in that area becomes numb, then progresses to a tingling, dry, burning feeling and the skin peels. These symptoms subside for a couple days and then I go through this painful, annoying, and embarrassing problem again. What could it be? Note: I do not have sores, the skin in that area of my lip looks really irritated and red and at time seems just a bit raised or swollen.

I woke up yesterday morning with the left half of my lower lip numb. I figured I must have hit my mouth on something the night before after drinking heavily. It's the second day now and the numbness hasn't subsided so I've began to get a little worried. I researched online and well it didn't calm me at all. I had also shared a hookah the night before and have had a history of dipping (have recently quit) so my mind is running wild with what it might be.

t notice at the time was that the side of my face that got hit was numb at some parts. I can not really feel the right half of my lips and some of the teeth there (when brushing). My cheeks seem okay, a little numb too. I also have a black eye now (the blood has pooled I guess). Should I go back to the emergency room or will the numbness in my face go away in a few days? Thank you.

Since the surgery her bottom lip on the left side is still numb, nerve damage? will it ever come back its been 2 months already. Or should she go to another oral surg.?

There is an infection and I am on antibiotics and the infection is almost all gone, the problem is that my lower lip only the left half and partway down my chin is still feeling numb (like when Novocain is wearing off and it is tingly with some feeling but still considered numb). I am wondering if this numbness will go away once the infection is completely gone or is there a chance that it may be permanent?

For about 1 month now my upper lip has been numb . Any suggestions ?

Now a few days later after I eat my chin/low left lip are numb for a few mintues. What is wrong with me, is it serious?

I just want to add that I can find no puncture from any bite. The bump is no longer whitish and is still raised. My bottom lip is still numb but now if I press on the bump, I feel a pain deep under. I'm worried. Please help.

Not laughing at all. I've never had it happen to my nose, but I've had my upper lip go numb several times. And all kinds of strange sensations inside my mouth, including for the last 3 months. MS is not a respecter of our various locations, is it?

For the last two days, I've had this really weird feeling on my top lip, kind of numb spasms. I looked in the mirror and the right side of my top lip was pulled up slightly, and there was a little dent where one side was pulled toward the other, kind of rhythmically. It was pretty steady the first day; felt kind of like Elvis or something. :o) The next day it was more intermittent, and then just pulled up on the whole right side. Today it's relatively normal.

I have had the facial numbness and droopy eye...and even a little bit of a numb lip...it is an odd sensation especially when u know u did not have an injection for it..... I can't remember getting a HA after...but I always had a HA...

Needless to say I noticed my lower left side of my lip and jaw/cheek became numb, and has been numb since. The swelling finally went down, but I can still feel like a hard bump in my lower jaw bone. I am starting to get worried, that my lip and cheek is still numb...Is this normal?? Will the feeling ever come back? Should I be worried??

I have been noticing for the past few months that my lips have been feeling numb. The numbness comes and goes and changes location, but it is usually around the spot where the upper and lower lips meet, but changes sides. I went to the dentist for a check up and I mentioned it to him. He said that it could possibly be a cold sore trying to come through but doesn't. Does this sound like what it is?

slept mostly after surgery (8am) but woke up later in the afternoon and noticed the left side of chin/lip from corner of mouth to center of chin/lip was numb. This was different than the other side that was no longer feeling the anesthesia. Day 2: No pain. The left side of chin and lip from the corner to the center of the jaw is STILL numb. My extraction sites are a bit sore but no real pain to speak of.

Hi - I don't think I've given you an official welcome here, so I'm glad you found us. Kids are so easily amused - too bad we aren't equalled entertained. I dont' get the whole numb lip thing - I just have one spot on my upper lip that does this. Instead I have a whole right leg that is sensory deprived. Keep laughing - sometimes tht's the best medicine.

Then the next morning they had small white dots all over the top lip to where they looked white but not overly noticeable unless I lifted my lip and saw the line where the white stopped and the red inside of my upper lip showed. In other words my husband would not have noticed this unless i pointed it all out to him. But of course I notice it since it is accompanied with the tingleing numb sensations.

Got home a bit ago from the dentist myself, got two fillings (one on each side) so my entire lower lip is numb.
