Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.

Since you are aware that you have illness related to your gall bladder then you must go and visit your physician first.consult him and start your medication.

After that you can see your dentist in relation to teeth pain.Please stop taking so many pain killers.It is very injurious to your liver.Therefore delay can damage your other vital organs too,like kidney,heart,brain etc.

Though gall bladder and tooth ache are not related,but still I would advise you to visit physician first,as general health is always taken into consideration prior to any dental treatment.

Thanks.
Take care.
