Dr told me never in third trimester. . If absolutely necessary beforehand ok.. I rather just not.. dealt with tooth pain for a night and got Tylenol the next day..

No. But I doubt one time is going to do damage. Just go get your Tylenol

No but it really depends on how much pain you are in. I have a infected broke off wisdom tooth during my last pregnancy my face swelled up and I was out of Tylenol so I took a 800 mg ibuprofen. Bad call for me but I was in pain and it was only once and everything turned out fine with baby so I was lucky.
