Default eye twitching after dental work, is this normal or is something wrong?

I had a temp crown and a filling on my right back bottom teeth - the last one is the crown and the one next to it was a filling - on Thursday afternoon. Since then my right eye (lower lid) has been twitching like CRAZY. It's driving me batty. You can literally SEE the twitch. I'm worried that the dentist hit a nerve or something. I go back Thursday for two more fillings and again on the 12th for the perm crown.

Any one have any ideas???

<---- that's me, Miss Twitchy. :/

I've had one for the past two weeks and it's driving me nuts too!!!! Mine is from stress and yes my girls can see it and find it fascinating to watch (that's me with my eye twitching in unison with yours!)

Hopefully your twitch is just stress related from the dental work and will disappear soon.

I'm wondering if it's stress-related too. I get eye twitches periodically - sometimes when I'm stressed, and sometimes just randomly (perhaps I'm stressed then too and just don't realize it?).

I hope it IS stress induced and not something related to the needle in my face! I'm really a "good" dental patient. Going doesn't bother me - unlike my "white coat syndrome" that is really, really just sad. My BP is always sky high anytime I go to a doc.

I was hoping someone would say, "Yes! It's from the pain meds, silly"... Now I'm still a bit worried!

Dh has had a twitch after surgery. I don't know whether it from the surgery or meds, but it went away.
