I am 21 weeks and I too had some tooth pain. I was going to tough it out but it got so bad it was hard to eat. I went to the dentist who told me I needed one tooth extracted and a root canal on another...I had just been to the dentist right before I got pregnant no problems. So yesterday was the big day I went to the oral surgeon in the morning and he pulled the tooth OUCH! And then in the afternoon the dreaded root canal...I was in so much pain the dr gave me vicodin and I took one and slept through the night. Today I feel 100 percent better I will not be taking anymore pain meds

I had an abcess wisdom tooth. I've been on amoxacillin for 20 days now cuz when I stop it starts getting infected again.  Approved by dr. Drink tons of milk because the baby is taking from your bones because your not getting enough calcium. Tylenol is good,  if it comes too severe they will prescribe loratab 5mg only as needed.

I had a horrible toothache... so I finally broke down and went to the dentist. I'm almost 31 weeks. Anyway, I have a cavity near my root... they wouldn't fill it without approval from my obgyn. They said the best time to do dental work is 2nd trimester. My obgyn ok'd it and sent the dentist a list of what was considered safe for me....
You can take tylenol for the pain. I had an infection in my gum so I'm on amoxicillin too...
