I was wondering from anyone who has knowledge on the subject. If my tooth currently is infected, will my dentist still do the extraction. This is a new dentist that I have never been to so she does not know my dental history but I really do feel this tooth needs to be pulled. Its badly decayed and has already had a root canal.
I am 14 weeks pregnant and want to to get a tooth extraction.?
get your previous dentist to send the history to the new one. ask your gynec. if you can have dental work done right now and if there are any meds you need to avoid. a tooth can be pulled while you are awake or you may be able to be put out - which i'm thinking you're going to be better awake - depending on medical history and status. i had all my wisdom teeth pulled while i was in my 3rd trimester. the oral surgeon saw me in my 2nd and said he wanted to wait till i was in my 3rd. he was not a regular dentist for me either. my dentist referred me to him. the surgeon is the one who said to wait till my 3rd tri. since it wasn't an emergency. in your case though - talk to both the dentist and your ob dr to see what they recommend. the ob knows your pregnancy status and can talk to the dentist if need be.
Reply:Get it done immediately before it is too late.
Reply:yes they will and you will be fine. Sorry for the tooth ache and congrads.. on the baby
