Unrelated: Probably unrelated to tooth. More likely to pharyngitis. Voice should return to normal. If persists, see ENt doc.

Possibly: I don't believe that the two incidences are related. However, never say never. Connections, relations and influences may not be understood at this time. Your voice may return to normal since the infection is under control. Inflammation can be disrupt or alter the sound of voice. If not call your MD for a referral. Good luck.

See ENT: Does not appear to be related. Did you see an ENT? The tooth was extracted and an antibiotic given, now get a treatment plan to replace the missing tooth to avoid additional problems.
