Pain: Please go back and see the dentist. It could be a dry socket that will require treatment or it may be another tooth acting up. Best to see the dentist now.

Phantom: In addition to dr. Karsant's excellent response, could also be phantom pain. In any case, you must go back to the treating practitioner to have the situation evaluated. Don't wait...Go now.
