Brief Answer:
Check body temperature or for other symptoms.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I think you should keep yourself under observations , checking body temperature or other symptoms you may develop.
Use tylenol for these flu like symptoms.
I can't find this much related to teeth cleaning.
Also taking count that you took amoxicillin it can't be related to bacterial infection.
It can just be common cold.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
