See your dentist: Without knowing what type of problems you were being treated for initially, and what type of dental procedures were performed, it would be difficult to provide any definitive answer except that you need to return to the dentist providing your treatment for further evaluation and treatment. If he or she cannot identify the source of your pain, a referral to a specialist may be advised.

Not normal: I am not sure what you had done, but your pain is not normal. You should not be in pain for this long after dental treatment. Please go back to your dentist and let them know what your experience is and get this fixed.
