iam a dentist myself. many women have pregnancy gingivitis ( bleeding gums) which s v common. use ultrasoft tooth brush and eat lot of vit c rich foods. if u have tooth ache its better to consult a nearby dentist asap as toothache might lead to infection

I think most pregnant women have tooth problem, even I had.. I visited dentist and he did Root canal immediately.. I suggest do as per your dentist. as u need to take pain killers, visiting now should help rather than visiting dentist near to delivery <u>date</u> or after delivery.

My dentist said that many females tend to have tooth problems during and after pregnancy. u may have one such problem. please dont delay the same and go to the denstist. i had tooth decay after my pregnancy...my babies were 6 months that tgm n exclusively breastfed. Had to remove the tooth and my whole face was swollen. for fove days had to bare it as dentost said they cant give me heavy dose because m. a breastfeeding mom. so ur treatment too may take few more days as they cant give high dose. please consult ur dentist as soon as possible. <u>tc</u>
