As a dentist I can assure you that we treat pregnant women all the time. Contact your regular dentist as soon as possible regarding your toothache as he/she will be able to get in touch with your OB-GYN to discuss treatment options. If your dentist is not available over the weekend then you might consider visiting your local ER, if a tooth gets an abscess (infection) then you will need to be started on antibiotic therapy immediately. Good luck with your tooth and pregnancy.

YES see a dentist. Studies have been done linking bad oral health to having premature babies (early births). So visit a dentist asap and also get your teeth cleaned by the dental hygienist there after the dentist fixes your tooth pain (most likely it is a cavity).

i could ask the doctor approximately Orajel.. there is infant Orajel, possibly you need to use that? Tylenol works particularly lots for toothaches too, my OBGYN reported i could desire to take that. examine with yours!

If your tooth is infected, it could pose a greater risk to your baby than getting dental treatment. Please see a dentist soon.
