Teeth don't pop: Teeth don't pop. Perhaps it's cracked and the fragments are rubbing together. Take OTC meds and see a dentist or oral surgeon ASAP.

See a dentist ASAP: 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. Visit a dentist ASAP for definitive diagnosis and treatment.

Pain/popping: Symptoms indicate infected fractured tooth. It will NOT self-heal. Please see your Dentist for competent professional help.

Popping Noises: I have yet to come across a tooth that made popping noises, but since you are in such terrible pain, why are you not calling a dentist for an emergency appointment? After treatment, any noises should abate.
