A member asked:

Why is my top lip twitching weeks after dental work?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Theodore Davantzis answered

Specializes in Dentistry

More info needed: What type of dental work? Were dental injections given? Did this twitching occur immediately after treatment? Best bet is to discuss with your treating dentist.

Dr Hickerson and another doctor agreed
