Is it common to have a burning tongue and inner lip after wisdom teeth are removed?

Yes. Because wisdom teeth extractions are performed around nerves that affect the jaw and tongue, it's not unusual to loose ALL sensation to parts of the lip, tongue, or chin. A tingling sensation indicates less damage than no sensation at all. The sensation generally returns to normal after a short time, but there are instances when the numbed or tingling sensation continues for a year or two. There are even unusual cases where the nerve damage is permanant.
