The tooth beside your wisdom tooth on the left side of your face could be one of the contributing factors for pain that side.
Next Steps
Consult a nearby specialist for getting that treated and extraction of your wisdom tooth. Watch out if the symptoms start resolving after every stage of treatment.
Health Tips
Try to keep the area near the wisdom teeth clean in general as in cases like this food lodgement ends up spoiling the tooth beside most of the times.

Hi.. Wisdom teeth usually don’t have enough space to emerge or develop normally. So they comes through at an angle and pushes into the gum or the tooth beside it leading to infection, pain, difficulty chewing, bad breath and radiating pain through the jaw and head. If left unattended, this pain can cause severe headache and earache.
By looking at your x-ray, you have wisdom teeth on both the sides.
Next Steps
Consult your dentist for removal of your wisdom teeth
Health Tips
