Jelly,

No.

The sensory innervation to the teeth is the maxilary and mandibular branches of the trigeminal nerve. The motor innervation to the lips is from the facial nerve.

These are two distinct and seperate nerves and no dental work can produce pathology in the facial nerve that can produce your symptoms.

see your doctor and your dentist.
