Can dental work and TN be related?

I had two molars pulled last April in 2016. Since then, my jaw bone pain began as well as a deep penetrating cheekbone pain that goes all the way to the outside of my nose. My left eye and eye socket aches all the time with the same kind of deep penetrating ache. My upper gums ache on the left side like there is an infection when there is not. It's all on the left side of my face. It is very debilitating and can go on for days. I do not have any "zap" sensations. I have not seen a doctor. Trigeminal neuralgia came up while researching my symptoms. My insurance just barely kicked in on Sept 3rd, so I can now see a dr for symptoms I have been experiencing for over a year now. Thank you, for taking the time to read this.
