Orthodontist

Should I let my orthodontist know I'm pregnant? I haven't been back since I found out and I have an appointment today. Just curious if anyone has had braces while pregnant? Did it affect the treatment process any?

It's still better to let them know in case they try to give you something or need to do something to you. Just let them know. .
