I visited a new dentist for cleaning and a correction to a bonded tooth. I informed them that I was allergic to latex and they stated that they do not use latex in their office. The next day fine bumps showed up under my tongue and spread to inside my bottom lip, inside my top lip and the tip of my tongue is numb. Does this sound like an allergic reaction?
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor .com. I had gone through your question I can understand your concern. Yes, it seems the allergic reaction, because most of the gloves are latex based and that can get in touch with your skin. Because the reason is only at local place (allergic mucositis), you don't need to worry much. You need to visit a general physician or oral Medicine expert for proper management. During mean time you need to get a stat of HY Chat Doctor.  Hope my answer will help you and visit us back if you have any further questions. Regards
