Tooth and Mouth Problems
Post-Wisdom Tooth Surgery Lingual Nerve
I had my wisdom tooth surgically removed on June 4, which took about 50–60 minutes due to its deep position. The next day, I began experiencing numbness, tingling, burning, and a pin-prick sensation on half of my tongue. I informed my doctor, who initially said it would fade. By June 7, symptoms worsened, and he suspected possible lingual nerve involvement, prescribing Neurobion Forte. On June 8, things escalated, and steroids were added. That night, I accidentally bit my tongue, which seemed to reduce the burning slightly.
As of today, the burning is localized and milder, some taste has returned, but numbness persists—especially troubling at night. Eating gives brief relief. I'm concerned whether full recovery is possible and if I'm on the right treatment path or need further steps.
Guidance Needed:
Will the nerve fully heal?
Are Neurobion and steroids enough?
Any additional treatment or specialist needed?

Pain in crowned tooth
Hello Dr,
I had my tooth cap done in Feb this year.
From the last 2 days, I started feeling pain especially on pressure and bite. Gum also swelled.
I went to dentist and had xray done, he said root canal not properly done.
Sent the xray to my dentist who did all this, he said xray is proper...minor infection can be there and gave me medicine.
Can you please check?

Tmj and asymmetry
I have developed facial asymmetry due to jaw deviation and shifting. One side of my face is comparatively lower than the other, my jaw is slightly uneven, my shoulders are slightly uneven, hips, ears and eyes as well. It is not very noticeable but when anyone clicks a picture it is evident. Oral surgeon has suggested an orthognathic surgery, but I recently heard a person having the same issues go with MARPE. Will MARPE help me? My upper palate seems uneven. Will marpe help me get an even face. I have my wedding next month, and i really tried to fix this before my wedding, I have tried and I am so tired of not being treated for a whole year for this. I was asked to get a splint, and then it wasn't fabricated well, some say I ll have to live with this since it's just mild. But I want to cure it. Is there a fix as I have my wedding in 4 weeks, if not give me long term treatment help. Please help me with your suggestions.

Half Tongue numbness and Burning pins
It’s been 25 days since my wisdom tooth surgery, and from the second day, I’ve had numbness, burning, and pins-and-needles on the right side of my tongue. The sensation is now milder and limited
to a small patch. And some time wider
I
An oral surgeon prescribed Rejuvnex CD3 NF, and the dentist advised Neurobion Forte with 15 days of steroids. The affected area feels like a burn from hot food. Eating and sucking on lozenges or Vitamin C gives some relief, but the discomfort persists.
I’m concerned about the possibility of permanent nerve damage and would appreciate any advice for recovery.
