Hello sir...
Pain while closing the mouth may be due to high points in the filling...kindly check it with your dentist and get it trimmed...yes you can take the syrup for pain relief temporarily...Also do x_ray to check whether the cavity involves the pulp(nerve layer).
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for further clinical examination and management

https://www.venkateshwar.dental/pain after filling is due to pressure buildup inside the tooth.It is when infection is close to the nerves and we just superficially clean the tooth and put filling leaving the infection inside.you need to fix the appointment and get it corrected as soon as possible.

If pain is occurring after closing mouth it’s usually due to an overfilled / fractured tooth . This needs to be corrected after meeting the dentist. Ibugesic plus may not help much in this case .
