There were no dentists, as such, during the Middle Ages. People who needed dental care went to surgeons instead. Surgeons were not taught in a medical school, as a physician would have been, but were apprenticed. A toothache might have been treated with herbs. More likely, the tooth would be pulled.

A toothache can last for weeks or months until you visit a dentist.

I went to the emergency room for a toothache was given amoxicillin yet cant see the dentist for three weeks when I run out of the amoxicillin can take penicillin?

I guess when you have an emergency for a toothache and your dentist prescribes you an antibiotic, if you run out then you would have to go back to your dentist. The reason for that is, you have too be prescribed the same medication and not mix them. I suggest that you get a refill. The point is, you should not mix the medication.
