Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain in case if there is loss of filling from the tooth and along with it there is sensitivity that is further leading to jaw pain, then it indicates that there is exposure of the nerves that are present in the centre of the tooth causing nerve irritation and pain..

You need to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and an x ray has to be taken..
In case if there is noerve exposure then root canal treatment of tooth or extraction will be advised depending on the depth of decay in the tooth..

As of now you can take anti inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen t relieve pain but it is a temporary treatment and you need to get the tooth treated for permanent resolution as taking painkillers for long durations without doctor's advise can be harmful and will however give only temporary relief..
So in case of tooth related problems treatment of the tooth can only give permanent relief..

Hope this helps..

Regards.
