Its very common,my first pregnancy 7 years ago my back tooth broke,i'm pregnant again and the one the other side broke,but now is the best time they can treat you and its free while your pregnant,don't worry the dentist will have seen worse teeth than yours i'm sure,good luck xWww@Answer-Health@Com
Go to your dentist about it!. They shouldn't tell you off, teeth do behave oddly when pregnant!. Maybe more calcium goes to the growing baby, or something!. Dentists do offer pain relief when pregnant!. There is another numbing jag they can give that is OK to use in pregnancy - the normal one is too risky !. But the alternative one works just as well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Oh this happened to me, they do give you pain relief obviously they will they wouldnt operate on your teeth without it, thats called torture!. Go to the dentist and get them sorted, once you do it you wont have to worry about it again, and getting rid of a small problem now is better for the baby then being all stressed and in pain from your teeth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Get to the dentist, madam! Apart from anything, it's free at the moment!. You can still have pain relief, or you can book the appointment for after baby arrives, but you need to get them looked at!. You also need to get some advice at the preggy clinic about calcium and your diet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Go to the dentist and get them sortes while you are not in pain, i got an abcess due to a broken tooth at 8months pregnant and at the time couldn't get in to a dentist, it was more painfull than giving birth please get it sorted before it gets worse!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Severe calcium deficiency!?
