Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

There is a possibility of severe jaw infection leading to pain and loss of teeth.
So first thing that you need to do is to consult an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated.
A clinical examination and a full mouth x ray that is a Panoromic x ray can help in ruling out the exact condition of the jaw and the cause of pain can be ruled out.
Any further treatment or artificial teeth can be placed only after the infection is completely resolved and the under lying jaw bone is strong enough to support the artificial teeth.
So better get checked thoroughly before you can proceed..

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
