Numbness after dental procedures is a common side effect of local anesthesia. It can be uncomfortable and make it difficult to eat, drink, or speak. There are a few things you can do to help the numbness go away faster.
One of the best ways to reduce numbness is to apply a cold compress to the affected area. The cold will help to constrict the blood vessels and reduce swelling, which can help the anesthesia to wear off more quickly. You can also try massaging the numb area gently. This will help to increase circulation and speed up the healing process.
