Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

As per your complain full mouth extraction that too during pregnancy is not advisable until it is an emergency condition that too after a consent and fitness with your Gynaecologist..

As far as taking painkiller is concerned you should take Acetaminophen or Paracetamol as it is considered safest during Pregnancy..


Avoid taking any other painkillers or medications without consulting your gynaecologist as it can be harmful for the foetus..

Hope this helps..

Regards
