Hello
Pain near the ear and temple region can occur when a wisdom tooth is erupting especially when the position of the tooth is not in proper alignment. Best thing would be to visit your nearest Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and get a thorough examination done. Mostly they will advise you to get an OPG done and if needed removal of the wisdom tooth might be suggested. Do get it removed if advised so to avoid recurrent pain and discomfort in the future

Visit an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, get full mouth xray.Through this we can decide whether tooth can be saved or removed. You can consult through this for prescription of medication to relieve pain and discomfort associated with the toothache.
