Wisdom teeth usually make their appearance between the ages of 17 and 21, though it's possible for them to push through earlier or later. Referred to as your "third molars," these four teeth begin to push through the skin like any other tooth, which can cause pain. However, wisdom teeth are much more likely to grow in at an incorrect angle – even sideways – causing impaction that can radiate this pain to the teeth in front of it. Kindly get it extracted as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, I cannot provide definitive medical advice. Whether an overbite of 0.3-0.4 cm will be a cause for rejection in afmc medicals is a complex question that depends on several factors, including:
severity of the overbite: while a mild overbite of 0.3-0.4 cm might not be automatically disqualifying, a more severe overbite could potentially lead to issues with jaw function or bite alignment, which might raise concerns during the medical examination.

Medicines are temporary relief .you need to go to a dentist for exact diagnosis and treatment. You can give him ketorol dt single tablet in case of pain and emergency .but you can't rely on medicines and they can't be taken time and again due to several reasons. So you need to go to a dentist and treatment done.
