If you are a medical professional yourself you will be able to understand that altered sensation can take time to rectify. Meanwhile you can discuss with the surgeon and start a course of Neurobione forte.

Hi, No need to worry. The numbness will reduce gradually. Be careful not to bite your lip and tongue. Visit your dentist for a review.
