Had a filling done on wisdom tooth. jaw pain, headache, ear pain the next day. had 2 nova caine shots during procedure. seems like pain is not tooth ?

Return: Call your Dentist to see if he/she wants you to return for post-operative care. You may have soreness along the need tracts. You may have sore joint from jaw being open for log time. Your Dentist knows your situation and is the best person to advise you.
