Safe: That should be safe in early pregnancy. More importantly get into your dentist to get that tooth fixed.

Yes: Denise, You can take 500 mg by mouth every four hours or 1000 mg every eight hours (maximum 300 mg per day). You need some antibiotics from your PCP or dentist and to see a dentist in about ten days to get your tooth taken care of. Best wishes.

What you need to do: ... is call your dentist for an evaluation. It would be worse for you and the baby should you become infected.

See Endodontist: get this treated! Rather than self medicate while in early pregnancy, get treated by a professional,they will get you out of pain! Have your dentist consult w your OBGYN beforehand.

See a dentist ASAP: Dental care is safe and essential during pregnancy. Pregnancy is not a reason to delay routine dental care or treatment. Good luck.
