Yes, the pronoun "it" is replacing "toothache."

"It" here is referring to, in a general sense, wherever you are having pain. In the case of a toothache, it would be your mouth. The meaning of "it" in this context would be derived from context. So you could also say, "I have a toothache. My mouth hurts a lot".
Hope this helps!
