Toothache: It sound as if you might have a deep cavity or an abcessed tooth. Make an appointment to see a dentist for diagnosis and treatment. The longer you wait, the less chance to save the tooth.

Go find out: Most common cause of tooth pain is infection (abscess) followed by fracture, but there are many other reasons. You need to be examined to determine cause of pain and then appropriate treatment. Please see Dentist ASAP. Delay will only result in problem worsening requiring more extensive (expensive) treatment.
