Sneezing, Sharp Sensation In Nostril After Fillings Done In Teeth. Cause?
I went to the dentist three days ago to have two fillings done on the bottom right side of my mouth. Ever since I have been sneezing and there is a sharp annoying sensation at the back of my right nostril when I try to inhale through my nose. I am not sure which part of the dental procedure has caused this. Whether it was the needle hitting a nerve, the Novocaine, or some sort of chemical that I inhaled but I just hope that this feeling will eventually go away. I have never had an issue with any of my past dental work. Do you know if this sort of thing is common and whether other people have suffered permanent damage or just experience their symptoms temporarily.?

the medicines used during and after procedure or even the anaesthetic leads to allergy
and there is nerve irritation causing the sneeze as some nerve are shared in ose sinus and teeth
there are temporary and become noral slowly
you can take anati allergic tab for 2 week if unbearable

Hello,
It is possible that you may be allergic to latex (gloves) causing the sneezing episodes.
But you will have redness, swelling in the mouth due to latex allergy.
The anaesthetic used Novocaine is sometimes mixed with adrenaline to allow spasm of vessels giving more time to the surgeon to work.
Occasionally the sharp sensation is due to adrenaline effects but this does not last more than a few hours.
Use an analgesic prescribed by your Dentist, but see him for the follow up visit sooner if these symptoms continue.
Best Wishes.
