Inflammation?: Inflammation could alter your taste... Should have your 2 wisdom teeth remove since they probably coming in at an angle or not in proper occlusion with the opposing arch.

Wisdom teeth: If the metallic taste started with the eruption of the wisdom teeth, then it may be related and should disappear. The causes of a metallic taste are often difficult to discover, as there is usually no single cause. If the metallic taste does not disappear once the wisdom teeth have erupted, check with your dentist, oral surgeon, or an ENT specialist.
