That could be a sign of decay under a filling, or even a crack in the tooth that chewing meat causes to spread open and flex the enamel and dentin inside. There could be a chip between the teeth that allows the meat to pack between them under the gum.A pill won't fix the tooth, only a Dentist can.

Perhaps you are clenching or grinding your teeth at night. Are stress levels high? You may need to see a dentist to have a night guard (splint) made.
