General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello, Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concern.
You have not mentioned what medicines you took & for how long?
Anaesthesia for tooth ache is not known to cause delayed periods. But periods might be delayed due to pain and agony of undergoing toothache.
Pregnancy test may be false in small number of cases if done early.
I advise you should repeat the test for 1 more time.
If you don't have periods two weeks after the expected date then you should visit the gynecologist.
Hope this will be helpful.
Thanks for your question. Take care.
