If the pain increases on lying down, then you may need a root canal. Decay has reached the nerve/ pulp of the tooth.
Visit your dentist asap.

Hello sir. The pain in your tooth is most likely is due to an infection in your tooth. You need to get a x-ray done to know the extent of the infection. If the infection is superficial, it can be treated by a filling and if the infection is deep, the tooth will need to go under a root canal treatment followed by a cap. Also get your scaling and polishing done. Get in done every 6 months to maintain your oral hygiene.
