In dentistry, nerve injury most often refers to altered feeling in the lip, chin, tongue, or gums after dental treatment or trauma. The term is also used for irritation of the tooth\u2019s internal nerve tissue (the dental pulp), which can cause sensitivity or pain. Clinicians use the concept of nerve injury to describe symptoms, track recovery, and communicate risk around procedures near nerves."}
