Hi mam..
The pain may be due to carious teeth or due to wisdom teeth
Wisdom teeth is one that fails to erupt in its normal position in th given period of time..
Consequences of wisdom teeth:
**pericoronitis
** soreness of jaw
** Trismus
**bad breathe
**crowding of adjacent teeth
** Erosion of adjacent teeth
** cyst formation
If the pain is due to carious lesion X_ray (IOPA) of the involved teeth should be taken to check the extent of tbe carious lesion
If the caries is superficial simole filling is enough
In case of deep lesion, Root canal treatment should be done
Next Steps
kindly visit bearby dentist for furthur conaultation and management
Health Tips

Hello,
Kindly visit your nearby dentist to get it checked up. It's very likely a cavity that'll need to be filled up.

Either a filling or if the cavity is too deep a root canal may be required. Consult a dentist and get an X-ray done. Your dentist will advise accordingly
