Need to see dentist : Consult dentist ASAP. Recommend acetaminophen for pain, and also needs antibiotic pencillin for possible root canal infection

Toothache: Congratulations on the baby. Stilpane is not innocuous. It is a narcotic, codeine phosphate, and your Obstetrician may not approve. Most common cause of toothache is infection. The bacteria, as well as the narcotic, may be armful to hour baby. You need to see a Dentist to immediately treat the infection. Nothing stronger than Tylenol until you see BOTH a Dentist and then an Obstetrician.
