Question : Hello,
For the past couple weeks, I have been experiencing numbness in the left side of my lower lip and down to my chin. It's nothing super intense or uncomfortable but it is noticeable. I do have a history of poor dental health... Could that be what's causing it?

Brief Answer:
No, not related to dental issue.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
This numbness could be due to vitamin deficiency or uncontrolled sugar levels or sensory stroke.
So i would suggest you to get proper physical examination done from your doctor.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards
