How long is it okay to use Motrin for a toothache?

I started having a toothache last Friday. Called the dentist Sat morning and got started on antibiotic. I have been using Motrin since Friday for the pain. Now I need the tooth extracted, but can’t get in to the oral surgeon until the 9th. Is it okay to continue using Motrin to keep the pain away for that long – it will have been 18 days total.
