Is it normal that even though I had my wisdom tooth pulled 3 days ago I still can not feel my 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.

Is there a major problem with a hole in a wisdom tooth?
Yes there is a problem. It means that you have a major cavity and you should have your wisdom tooth checked right away. The dentist would either tell you to do a filling on it if it is out enough and if the cavity is not too deep. The other alternative would be to extract it.If the tooth is well out and the cavity is into the pulp chamber (nerve), you might save your tooth by doing a root canal on it. That needs to be discussed with the dentist.By Cyberanto

Can a lingual nerve damaged during wisdom tooth extraction be repaired?
It depends on how badly damaged the nerve is. If it is completely severed, the likelihood of restoration of complete function is low. If the nerve is simply bumped or touched, it will usually heal on its own within 12 months. The most frequent nerve damaged during wisdom tooth extraction is actually the mandibular nerve, which runs through the lower jaw and provides sensation to all the lower teeth on one side.
