Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The novaclox is a combination of amoxicillin and cloxacillin, you can take this during pregnancy, these drugs will come under category B(NO PROVEN RISK IN HUMANS). You can take topical mucopain ointment also. But If i am your treating doctor, i would have advised you to take plain amoxicillin and paracetamol. Once you complete your first trimester, get the tooth removed under local anesthesia. Do saline gargling and do not use mouth wash.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
