Hello!Thank you for posting here.
Dental treatment during pregnancy can be done in the second trimester.You did not mention if the tooth is badly broken or it is a third molar.Do not take diclofenac in pregnancy.Take paracetamol for pain.Take a pulp extirpation therapy temporarily till your second trimester.During the Second trimester, you can either remove it or continue the root canal.
Do not expose yourself to the xrays.
Tooth extraction and anesthesia is safe in pregnancy.Only thing is you must keep cool and not be anxious during the treatment.
Regards.
