Amalgam, PFM (porcelain fused to metal crowns) and metal from partial dentures can cause galvanism intraorally which is usually accompanied with bitter or sor taste in the mouth, tingling of the tongue, and overall discomfort. Certain cosmetic procedures on the face can affect the patient. In your situation, the discomfort that you felt was most likely associated with radio-frequency treatment. In post-operative period itching, numbness and intermittent pains may occur for as long as two months after the surgery especially along the jaw line and cheekbones. You should contact your doctor in case you have prolonged symptoms.
