My wisdom teeth have been coming in for about 3 years. Only about once a year do they bother me, and my dentist recommended last year that I have them removed. I am 23 weeks pregnant and my doctor said there was no problem as to why i shouldn't be able to get them taken out. For the past week I have not been able to eat, sleep, or talk very much at all. Today, of all days, I get my range of motion in my mouth back and the swelling went down. I have been taking tylenol to help with the pain and it seems to work for a short period of time. At first the dentist told his assistant to set me up with a referral to an oral surgeon then he looked at my teeth and gave me some mouth wash and said we should wait until after I have the baby. I am due in Feb and they made my next appt for April. My other teeth are not being affected right now, and the pain is almost gone. Should I make an appt with the oral surgeon or trust the dentist I just met and wait until after the baby is born?
