Hello and thank you for the question.
In the setting of cavities and oral pain, the possibility exists of a dental infection, or abscess. This must be evaluated immediately. Routine AND urgent dental care during pregnancy is completely appropriate and should not be delayed because of the pregnancy. Until you get seen, which should be very soon, you can take Tylenol for the pain.
I hope that this helps and good luck!
