What hare the consequences of falling asleep with a toothache?

Worse Pain.... : You may wake up in worse pain. It is always best to get treatment prior to experiencing any pain. The cost of treatment and the pain of treatment is always greater when you wait until you are in a crisis situation.

None: If you can fall asleep due to the pain, there are no real consequences during or after sleep. But you should see a dentist to investigate the cause of the pain.

No consequences: Just see a dentist ASAP. Because pain may interrupt your sleep in the near future. Good luck.
