Get a dentist opinion, you are in second trimester ( 4 to 7 months) which is safe for dental procedures. If issues are due to wisdom tooth, you can plan for extraction. After 7 months it is not safe for any dental treatments.
Hope this helps you

Do not use metronidazole during pregnancy or lactation period in any form, whether it's gel or tablet.
Warm water gargle, if no history of high pressure, mix a punch of salt to it. Continue doing it only if it's relieving the pain.
T. pyregesic 650, is a safe medication for partially relieving the pain, can take 3 times/day.
Post picture of the tooth region.
Make sure you do not have any ulcer formed anywhere underneath, which sometimes show same intensity to that of tooth ache.
