A member asked:
I had oral surgery to remove a maxillary cyst 8 weeks ago, how long until the numbness in my gum and face subside?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Numbness: In most cases, the numbness would have already subsided. There have been cases where it takes up to one year to resolve and sometimes it is permanent. The doctor who did the surgery would be the best one to discuss this issue with you.

It depends: On where the cyst was, how the surgery went and your. Own natural healing ability. The person that can give you the best estimate is your surgeon.
