Dental numbing is a condition that is often related to complications after different types of dental treatments. It is something rare, but it can cause considerable discomfort for those who suffer from it. At the AM Dentistry Dental Clinic we want you to have all the keys about this complication. Therefore, we are going to tell you everything you need to know about it. Going to a dental clinic with expert specialists in different dental areas increases the safety of oral procedures.
In our dental center we are committed to cutting-edge technology, in order to optimize and improve each treatment. Advances in dentistry allow us to design personalized dental treatments that are much more predictable and with fewer risks for the patient. In order to avoid complications such as dental or facial numbing, our advice is that you only go to quality dental clinics, which provide you with guarantees of safety, experience and expertise.
Techniques such as computer-guided surgery are key in procedures such as dental implantology. With this technology we make sure that the process will be completed successfully and without serious consequences, such as possible paresthesia. Nerves coexist in the mouth, which if treated incorrectly can cause facial numbing. This is a complex side effect, which responds to poorly planned dental treatments. At AM Odontología we are committed to a good diagnosis, which allows us to design innovative and current procedures. We treat you in a particular and personalized way, so that the success of the treatment is remarkable.
What is dental numbing?
Dental numbing is a clear numbness in the lip or jaw. This condition is related to the dental nerve, generally inferior. It arises due to dental treatments in which the nerve is compromised. It is rare, but its consequences can last over time. Another complication derived from poorly performed oral treatments can be facial paresthesia. In this case the muscles of the face become considerably numb.
Causes of facial and dental numbing
There are many causes that hide behind paresthesia. It is a condition related to the nervous system, so some pathologies may allow its development. In addition, dental interventions can also cause its appearance:
-Diseases related to the dental nervous system, such as the case of multiple sclerosis.
-Hormonal changes that compromise the nervous system. -People affected by migraine.
-Fractures in facial bones. -Pressing the dental nerve during an oral treatment.
-Poorly planned and performed oral surgery. -Drugs or anesthesia in patients with intolerances.
Oral treatments and dental numbing
The causes of dental paresthesia are usually linked to oral procedures that have not been well planned and executed. Some specific treatments are related to these complications: Extraction: dental extraction, especially wisdom teeth, can compromise the dental nerve, which is very close to these molars. This complication is very rare and proco prevalent. If you go to an experienced dental clinic, it is difficult for it to happen to you. Endodontics: poorly performed root canal treatments could also lead to numbness in the area.
Oral surgery: poorly planned surgical acts can trigger these postoperative complications. At AM Odontología we are committed to computer-guided surgery, which allows us to design very predictable, safe and successful surgical treatments. Dental implants: when placing dental implants it is possible to press the dental nerve, causing paresthesia. In our clinic we use state-of-the-art imaging tests and implant techniques, which guarantee safe and complication-free treatments.
Main symptoms of dental numbing
Both facial and dental numbing usually present clear symptoms. If you suffer from any of these signs after oral treatment, you should visit your dentist as soon as possible. Our objective, in these cases, is to remedy the complication quickly:
-Numbness or numbness of the face, jaw, or lip area. -Recurring tingling sensation.
-Loss of sensation in the affected area. -Headaches and noticeable discomfort after oral treatment.
-Presence of dry mouth or xerostomia.
-How to eliminate paresthesia?
-Treatment for paresthesia depends a lot on why it occurs. Prevention is the best way to avoid these complications. To do this, you must go to dental centers that offer you guarantees of quality and experience. Your dentist should have extensive knowledge of her dental specialty.
At AM Odontología we carry out cutting-edge treatments. To do this, we resort to technological innovations that help us design very safe, more predictable procedures that are free of subsequent complications. Through our intraoral scanner we obtain a more complete view of the oral structures and the location of the dental nerve. This way we avoid damage in the area. As a general rule, facial or dental paresthesia usually lasts less than six months. Although there are more serious cases in which the disease becomes chronic.
Having a good supply of B vitamins is essential. In our dental clinic we analyze the causes that cause the condition, in order to establish tailor-made treatments that allow us to tackle the problem.
