Location: wisdom teeth are way back after all teeth ends. Go see your dentist instead of 2nd guessing and self diagnosing. Good luck

See a dentist ASAP: The tooth pain won't go away without treatment and the infection may spread to your jaw, cheeks, sinus and to other areas of your head and neck. You can use Tylenol (acetaminophen) for pain control. See a dentist ASAP for assessment and treatment. Do not delay.

Pain not good: Regardless of the causative tooth, dental pain needs evaluation/treatment. See dentist. If it is wisdom tooth, see wisdom tooth expert. For best results with wisdom teeth, make sure you are evaluated and treated by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon.
