dental pain

I went about almost two weeks ago for a filing. the dentist cleaned the tooth out from decay and filled it. every since then i had pain in the join of my jaw and pain in the lower jaw and pain right over my eye. Now i am having pain in my right eye ear. could this be a sign of an sinus infection or could my my gum got infected. I also have pain in my  mouth but not in the place where he filled it.

I am having the same problem. I will not see a tmj specialist because I did not have this pain before I got my cavities filled, so it's obviously something my dentist did wrong. I'm going back constantly to try and figure it out! Please let me know if you have resolved your painful issue. Thanks

If there is no dental pathology identified, seeing a tmj specialist is advised.
