Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

I would suggest you to first take a pregnancy urine test at home and confirm whether you are pregnanat or not, for toothache you can take tab amoxicillin tab paracetomol it is safe during pregnancy, x-rays sholud ve avoided during pregnancy, if the infection is high temporary excavation of caries and filling can be done.

Take care!
