Read your query as you have toothache and swelling in upper tooth and you are pregnant also. Don't be worried so much as you are pregnant, firstly I will advice you don't take stress and for pain and swelling I will suggest you to do:
- Warm saline rinses 4 -5 times a day that will help you to reduce swelling.
- For pain you can take Analgesic medicine like Dispersable Paracetamol by consulting with local doctor.

Hope I have answered your query.
If you have further query I will be happy to help.
