Treat decay first. Treatment for decay would be decided on clinical examination and x ray. If the same or more pain continues after treatment of tooth, then you may have to visit ENT. Ear pain is common with decayed teeth or impacted wisdom teeth.
Next Steps
Visit dentist for clinical examination and x ray.

Do not try any home remedies.
