CALL A DENTIST: A toothache can cause all these symptoms .Make an appointment with a dentist until then take tylenol (acetaminophen) and cold compress on side of face but if swollen than a hot compress.

See a dentist: The best advise that i can give you is to see a dentist to determine the cause of the toothache and facial pain. The headache may or may not be related. We can't make a diagnosis over the internet, nor can you diagnose or treat yourself. A dentist can determine the cause of your problems and suggest treatment, which should remedy your situation. Don't wait until things get even worse.

Probably related: A toothache can cause earaches and headaches. Headaches are often caused by upper teeth that have pulp disease. Lower molars often cause ear pain. Have a thorough exam by an endodontist, often times a root canal can solve your problem.

Or: It could be pain coming from something unrelated to a tooth. It could be from many things including muscles or nerves. I would suggest seeing a dentist who is focused on facial pain if the endodontist finds nothing wrong with your teeth.

See a dentist ASAP: Any other treatment is a temporary relief. A 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. See your dentist ASAP.
