Hello sir
Pain means you got the filling done over the pulp tissue inside the tooth. It will be better if you go for rct

The cavity must have been too deep when you got it filled such that the filling material is now touching the nerve tissue and irritating it. That is why the pain has increased and you feel it in the root.
Next Steps
You will have to get an rct(root canal treatment) done for that tooth

You may require root canal treatment for that tooth. Get an X-ray done. Also tell your doctor to check the height of your filling. If the filling is high it may require to be adjusted to the proper level and you may get relief from pain.

Hello sir, first we need to take an x-ray to check whether there is any infection beneath your roots... If there is infection, the only treatment to save your tooth is to do Root Canal Treatment... Don't have to remove your tooth, it can be saved..
