Please see dentist: The path of nerves can cause strange sensations in areas that we do not expect to have those sensations. It is important that you see your dentist so he/she can assess weather this is a temporary response to your extractions or if something else is going on. Peace and good health.

Surgery: An extraction is a surgical procedure. The sensory nerve to the teeth in your upper jaw needs time to heal. If you are concerned, talk to the person that knows your situation the best, your Surgeon.

Uncommon, see DDS: However, a suddenly sensitive tooth or teeth can be symptoms of another problem. See your dentist for follow up and eval.
