A child patient took general anesthesia for filling her teeth, shes still 2 days sleeping but everything's normal what could have happened ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor: When you say sleeping a lot- does this mean she is not waking up to eat or drink- if that is the case then you need to take her to your doctor In some people anesthesia can take a longer time to wear off but she should have been awake and normal prior to leaving the dentist Staying very sleepy after two days sounds concerning to me

If my cheek still hurts when I move my mouth a certain way more than 1 day after dental fillings, does that mean the dentist injected anaesthesia in the wrong spot? First and third anaesthesia injection didnt hurt, but the second one was painful?
I'm worried as i've had a lot of anesthesia over the past month to do fillings in my mouth. Will there be any negative effects?
