Is it normal for the tongue to still be numb a week after getting your wisdom teeth pulled?

If they were lower teeth towards the back of your mouth, it is possible that the nerve that brings sensation from the tongue may have been bumped or bruised during the procedure. This damage is temporary, but sometimes it can take up to a year for the sensation to return to the tongue.

Sometimes when lower wisdom teeth are removed, the nerve that is used by the tongue is bumped or bruised. It is most often temporary, but it sometimes can take several months to heal. Let the dentist who removed the teeth know about this complication.

When getting a normal tooth not a wisdom tooth pulled is it okay to smoke weed?
Yes you can, you only might get an infection. It might hurt but shiv happens, i have done it and it didn't do any thing to me. The reason why you are not supposed to smoke anything after getting a wisdom tooth pulled is because smoking dries out the newly exposed gum area, which is not good for its healing. So it probably is the same for a regular tooth; just wait a few days to a week.
