Abstract
|
|
|
|
Facial nerve palsy after dental procedure is rarely reported. A 53-year-old woman visited our clinic due to right facial palsy after routine dental procedure with local anesthesia. Magnetic resonance imaging showed right facial nerve enhancement in the labyrinthine segment. The mechanism of facial nerve palsy after dental procedure might be due to the direct needle injury of facial nerve or neurotoxicity of local anesthesia.
