I went to the dentist two weeks ago to get a temporary crown put in b/c i broke my back tooth --- I had jaw pain the entire time -- went back to the dentist after 8 days to make sure nothing was wrong (infection, exct) -- he told me I had some muscle damage due to the novaciane shot... then 11 days lafter the procedure my lips, chin and jaw are numb -- like pins and needles the feeling when you come out of novaicaine. I have had this feeling SINCE friday non-stop....

I went to Dentist today and he prescirbed a steriod -- said the feeling should come back to normal but he muist have knicked a nerve....

Has anyone else been through this or something like it?
