I think by the end of this year, I'm going to be addicted to the painkiller dentists used (septocaine if I'm not mistaken). For some reason my dentist always put on
liberal amount of that numbing substance when she does my fillings. Like this morning, I had the fillings at 8 in the morning and it's 1030 now. My left cheek still feels like it's the size of my head while my the jaw area felt like somebody had just rammed a hammer into it. So it's numb where I don't need to be (the cheek, the outer skin of my left jaw), but utterly sore where I wish it be numb (the left jaw). I guess I'll just spend the day snapping at people to alleviate the pain.
To....why don't you post some pictures of your swollen cheek :D hihihi
My dentist did that to me and I couldn't even feel my nose..that's scary...
man, i think there's something wrong.. it's been four days and the joint where my upper jaw meets the lower one is still somewhat stiff.
lol, maybe i opened my mouth too wide for too long period of time.
