Sometimes the docs will let you take codeine but thats normally in late pregnancy. Have you tried clove oil? Its good for toothache, you just put it on the bad tooth. Hope your feeling better soon xx

When I had pains when I was 14 weeks the hospital gave me co-codamol.
Toothache can be so horrible I really feel for you, hope it eases off very soon.

Also try an ice pack or a bag of frozen peas an it this sometimes helps

The only one I have been told that is 'safe' in pregnancy is paracetemol. Maybe if you phone up again and explain that you are pregnant and in a lot of pain, they might be able to give you an emergency appointment.

I hope you feel better soon.
