dental issues?

Has anyone on here had to have dental work done?

What about having one tooth changing color?

I have to go to the dentist in two weeks to have a cavity filled, but noticed today that one of my top teeth has gotten a little darker. It's not the same tooth that has a cavity so I'm not sure what to think. I'm going to call my dentist tomorrow  but was curious if anyone else had experienced something similar?

How far along were you when you got the root canal? It didn't harm baby?

I had the root canal done during my 2 and trimester. They said it was best to have it done cuz if left untreated would get infected and cause more harm to the baby. She is doing great she will be here on Dec 3rd via c section. Sorry so late I forget to go back and check on things I posted. Best of luck to u

Ugh. Yes. I have had a cavity in one of my molara foe some time now and it has gotten significantly worse. I had to go on a regimen of antibiotics. It felt SOOOO much better afterwards and is holding on HOPEFULLY until this little one makes her debut. A root canal will be required but being high risk (high BP prior to pregnancy, first two babies premature due to pre eclampsia, severe back issues, kidney stones and recurring infections and partial nephrectomy), the MFM doctors don't want me to have it done while pregnant.

And apparently I've forgotten how to use spell check before I hit post! Sorry for the misspellings.
