Good idea: It would be reasonable to see your dentist if your wisdom teeth are aching. Also would be nice to clarify that your ear infection has resolved. Good luck.

Of course: Toothache should not be ignored, because it can be a significant risk to your tooth and your health. See a dentist for examination, x-rays and treatment. Do not delay, bad tooth ache will not go away on its own.

Yes you do: the pain from the ear infection could be partially from the infected wisdom tooth. See a dentist to take care of that wisdom tooth and rule out the pain from the fillings you just had done.
