Is Tooth Pain Co-related To Numbness In Fingers?

Hi I had dental treatment yesterday at three pm. Since treatment I've had raging toothache. It's not that that's bothering me. However I have numbness in 2 of my fingers which will not go away. It is on the same side of my body as the bad tooth. Could this be connected

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
As you are mentioning that you had dental treatment done yesterday and now you are having numbness of your fingers, it is not related actually.
But it can be possible that some chemical must have fallen on your fingers which is causing this problem.
Better once you should visit a good physician and get it checked.
Hope it will help you.
Regards
