If the procedure was in the lower jaw, the teeth, lip, and surrounding tissue will be numb or asleep.
Sometimes the tongue will also be numb.
If the procedure was in the upper jaw, the teeth, lip, and surrounding tissue will be numb or asleep.
Often, children do not understand the effects of local anesthesia, and may chew, scratch, suck, or play with the numb lip, tongue, or cheek.
These actions can cause minor irritations or can be severe enough to cause swelling and abrasions to the tissue.
Please watch and stay close with your child for approximately two hours following the appointment.
