I had a small cavity and the dentist decided to freeze it with some anesthetic, the injection was not very painful but now my whole half face feels numb, is this normal? even my ears are numb (if I touch it I can't feel it).
I also feel like my tongue is big and I can't breath very well. Am I allergic to the anesthetic or is this very normal (I am home already).

It's perfectly normal. The Anesthetic numbs the whole area, it'll wear off before long. Your not having breathing problems, it just feels weird because you're all numb.
Don't worry about it.

The effect of that should wear off in about 4-5 hours.
