Solutions for a pregnant woman with an impacted wisdom tooth.....?

I am in the miltary and my wisdom teeth first came in last July. Due to unit training, I was told I would have to wait to get dental care. When training was over, I went to the dentist but the surgeon was so booked that I wasn't able to get to the clinic for my consult until January. When I finally was about to get my wisdom teeth removed in March, I was told to take a mandatory pregnancy test(apparently women who are pregnant cannot have dental work done). I took the test, and it was positive. A few days ago, I started getting severe sharp pains on the side of my jaw where the tooth came in. What can I do for the pain? I cant have my teeth removed right?
