Speech Issue after wisdom teeth extract

Question

Asked for Male, 24 Years

I had slurred speech and slight jaw stiffness on right side two months back for first time in life, went to dentist, he said that was because of wisdom teeth eruption, so went for extraction. Now even after one month after extraction slightly slurred speech is continuing. May i know the cause and simple tips to improve on.?? Is it because nerves might have been damaged or is it normal to take so much time to recover??

Wisdom teeth problem will not cause slurred speech. Since that was your initial problem even before extraction please consult a good neurologist
