Hello there , Pain is an indicator that the cavity has likely reached near the pulp (nerves). I recommend visiting a nearby endodontist for a root canal treatment (RCT), followed by a crown to restore and protect the tooth.
Next Steps
RCT Crown

If there's a cavity on the tooth and there's pain while chewing it is quite possible that the same is because of the tooth is infected and the infection has reached the pulp and beyond ( inner core of the tooth).this could be treated with root canal treatment after confirming the same with an x ray . Painkillers could give you temporary relief till you can start the treatment.
Next Steps
online consult followed by a visit to your nearest dentist for a definitive treatment
Health Tips
seek early attention as the same could cause continued discomfort and abrupt increase in pain.

Hey, "If your pain is radiating toward the ear or head, it means the pulp might be exposed. To confirm, you need to get an X-ray done."
