I see no reason to alter your training program for this type of treatment. The materials used and the type of procedure have negligible effect on your system. Take a day off if you want, but don't blame the procedure.

Oral anesthesia would not interfere with your exercise. Do be careful when eating and drinking till the sensation returns to normal. Wish you good health!
