Your doctor will know what's best for you depending on all the circumstances.  Be sure to let him know you might be pregnant and he will run all necessary tests before the procedure.

I'm  taken  the preg test   tonight on my letter   from the dentist it say sedation where your awake but you wont remember what happened

Tell your dentist you may be pg, and let him decide about the sedation.  He'll know much more about the sedative(s) involved than we do.

Good luck!

Hi Katie,
Yes, that's exactly what I mean by discussing everything with your doctor.  He'll know the priorities.  Over the internet like this it's impossible for us to say.  We don't know what your treatment is and how life-threatening your situation is (presumably not, because it's dental work).  

But just off the top of my head, mild sedation for dental work is probably fine during pg.  But let the dentist make that decision.  I'm not sure if you're from the US, but here dentists won't do any procedures on you without a note of consent from your OB/GYN.
