thanks for your query, i have gone through your question, the pain could be because of the root tip infection called apical periodontitis..consult a oral physician and take radiograph like IOPAR and if the bone support is fine we can save the tooth by doing RCT otherwise we have to remove the tooth...you can continue the medicines since you have already started with broad spectrum antibiotics...i hope my answer will help you... its better to start your medicines with narrow spectrum antibiotics like penicillin...
I find this answer helpful
