Any dentists about?

Hi,
just wondering if any dentists can help me please?
i have an impacted canine, it’s fully impacted right up by my nose lying on its side, when I was younger instead of removing it they just built a bridge between the other 2 teeth to fill the gap.
it’s never given me any problems but last week I knocked the tooth below and it moved a bit, and ached I went the dentist and he said it’s fine and it might have bumped the impacted tooth and to just leave it.
since then my gums ache on that side all the time, especially if I lie down.
if I press where the impacted tooth is the one below hurts.
my whole mouth just feels weird, I went back to the dentist thinking maybe it was an abscess or an infection but he just looked at me like I was mad and said there is nothing wrong with it and no infection.
my gums kinda burn and ache all the time. I’m worried I have some infection and all my teeth will fall out or it’s something to do with the impacted tooth??
i don’t want to go back to the dentist as I am starting to look neurotic and I don’t want to waste his time but something isn’t right??

Sounds like sinusitis to be honest

I don’t have any other symtoms though like headache or blocked nose, it’s just all the one side of my jaw??
