my dentist of 15 years turns out to have let me bang a 30 year old #9 platinum crown bang into my head for 6 years after referred pain to the ear.  2 Specialist finally admitted his neglect. I have taken every vitamin and test you can..   I figured it was that tooth, but my blind dentist stated everything was ok.  because of the cronism within the community, it took time to find an honest dentist, the tooth is now removed, and pain is better but still unbearable
Hi dear, As per your query you have pain in head and ear due to tooth, and it gets better after removal of tooth. Sometimes infection left at the bottom of the tooth even after removal of tooth and pain usually radiate to ears. In such case pain occur and if left untreated then it can cause infection of bone also. I would suggest you to consult oral surgeon for proper examination. Doctor may take X-ray to fin-out exact cause and rule out causes like Chat Doctor.  Doctor may irrigate socket with Betadine and prescribe antibiotic course along with anti-inflammatory for at least 10 days. For now do warm saline rinses several times a day, maintain proper oral hygiene and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
