Please take Tab. Keterol DT for now and do warm water rinse few times. Avoid chewing from that side and see a dentist as soon as possible .

hello,
you need to visit a dentist and get it checked. get an x-ray done. if there is a cavity you need to get it filled. if there is an infection to the root of the tooth, you need to get it treated. then get a crown placed over it. Bad breath could be because of deposits on teeth surface or food lodged in between teeth. Visit a dentist and get your scaling and polishing done. Brush your teeth twice daily, night brushing is very important. Floss regularly. Rinse after every meal. Visit dentist every 6 months.

Most probably there is food impaction. Need to see to decide if it is cavity in a tooth or due to a gum pocket and treat accordingly.
