Be patient: You may experience any of these conditions: earache, headache or sore throat for a short period of time (4-7 days). This will usually resolve on its own.

Contact the provider: Consult with the oral surgeon to make sure that this is related. Perhaps an antibiotic may be needed or the current antibiotic may need to be modified.
