HELLO,
DESPITE THE ADVICE YOU MAY READ, THERE IS NO WAY TO SPEED UP THE WEARING OFF OF THE CHEMICAL REACTION. YOUR LIVER HAS TO PROCESS THE CHEMICALS CAUSING THE NUMBNESS AND IT CAN BE SEVERAL HOURS BEFORE THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL.
NEXT TIME YOUR AT YOUR DENTIST ASK HIM/HER TO GIVE YOU THE SHORT-ACTING ANESTHETIC.

Excedrin, has caffeine and aspirin to speed the blood and release the numb!
