Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
Actually in 8th month of pregnancy, removal of tooth is contraindicated, that is why the dentist denied for this procedure.
You can start with antibiotic amoxicillin 250 mg thrice daily and paracetamol thrice daily, As this will reduce the infection and even pain. Continue this for atlest 5 days.
Hope it will help you.
