See DDS: Speak to the dentist or oral surgeon that performed the extraction. A clinical evaluation may be warranted.

Give it : a little time. You may be still numb from the anesthesia. If your face still feels numb in a week, then see your Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon.

Minor?: Your minor toothache turned into a major spreading infection. There may be residual infection requiring a course of antibiotic therapy. Or it may be that the anesthetic has not worn off yet. Or both. Call the Dentist or the specialist Oral Surgeon that removed your infected tooth for advice.
