Specializes in Pain Management

It is possible: that Infection in your tooth can travel throughout your whole body and of course your throat. Along with the pain, a tooth infection might also cause sore throats and swollen lymph glands just under the jaw. It will take 7-10 days for infection to clear. Taking OTC NSAIDs and gargling warm saltwater can also help soothe discomfort and speed up the healing process. good luck.
