Hello, This is not a usual problem until you have undergone some dental procedure like tooth extraction or some infection on the right side of the lower jaw. As you told that your age is 19 years, I suggest you to go for an OPG x-ray of your upper and lower jaw to see the direction and eruption of third molar. The reason for numbness other than infection could be third molar impingement to the inferior alveolar nerve. I suggest you to visit dentist soon, get an OPG done and get your problem diagnosed and treated. Vishal JainVitaldent
