It's Sinusitis: Your probably have sinusitis. There are a number of sinus spaces lined with mucous membrane which when dry can not drain properly and get infected. It can feel like toothache, and they are connected to the ear by the naso-pharynx. Get a humidifier, and see your doctor.

Very unlikely: A infected upper wisdom tooth that is swollen and causing pressure in area could put pressure on your ear but most likely the cause of your TINNITUS is constant loud noise, stress and alcohol .See an ENT specialist.
