Both the inferior alveolar and the lingual nerve are at risk for damage following various surgical procedures. Sensory nerve function following potential damage should be tested and evaluated for treatment, with microneurosurgery considered under certain conditions. Repair between three and six months following injury has the best results. A study of 43 patients who underwent microneurosurgery for various types of injuries, and have been followed for at least one year, found four (9.3 percent) with essentially complete return of sensation; five (11.6 percent) with good return; 19 (44.2 percent) with some return; 13 (30.2 percent) with no return; and two (4.6 percent) with a decrease in sensation.
在下牙槽神经和舌神经在各种外科手术后均有受损风险。对于潜在损伤后的感觉神经功能应进行检测和评估以确定治疗方案，在某些情况下可考虑进行显微神经外科手术。损伤后三到六个月进行修复效果最佳。一项针对43例因各种类型损伤接受显微神经外科手术且随访至少一年的患者的研究发现，4例（9.3%）感觉基本完全恢复；5例（11.6%）恢复良好；19例（44.2%）有部分恢复；13例（30.2%）未恢复；2例（4.6%）感觉减退。
