As per your complain pain on face after weaning off the anaesthesia post treatment of tooth is not an uncommon finding and can be controlled with post treatment painkillers..
Sleeping can be due to exertion caused due to treatment and pain and not a side effect of anaesthesia..
I would suggest you to consult your dentist and get evaluated and he can advise him painkillers for relieving pain and the pain will eventually subside. Don't stop the treatment if there are further sittings left and continue it completely..
Also if there is recurring episodes of pain then get an x-ray of tooth done and then treatment can be done accordingly..
