Hi all, hoping for some advice. Am 15 weeks pregnant and have been struck down with toothache that's just got worse over the weekend and is now really constant and painful. I think it's wisdom tooth-related but my gums along the whole of that side are also really sore and inflamed. I have an emergency dentist appointment tomorrow so am just trying to manage the pain til then.
I've been taking paracetamol, which helps, but there is obviously a maximum daily dose for that and I'm approaching it. I've read that bonjela isn't recommended in pregnancy. Any other suggestions of ways to manage the pain until tomorrow (and possibly beyond as I assume the dentist won't be able to just sort it all out on the spot)?
TIA
