I wasn't sure why the rush, but I usually end up having to get the laughing gas cuz I can't stand the dentist. My ob okayed vicoden so it must depend on your doc. It's up to you if you can do it then get it done. Good luck.
Im in my third trimester and I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled last week and it took about 20 minutes. They use a different kind of novacaine and only a certain amount that is safer for pregnant women. The only other difference is normally u get vicodin for the pain after but tylenol with codeine is the only safe pain med for pregnancy. My ob sent me with a letter of approval for what I can take. It is completely safe to do while pregnant and also in the third trimester.
Unless it's painful or infected it would be best to wait. It's important to maintain healthy teeth and gums during pregnancy... but I wouldn't do any unnecessary work or work that can be postponed.
My dentist told me they will do it if I wasn't comfortable waiting. The reason they avoid 3rd trimester is because it is too uncomfortable for pregnant women to lay on their back that long. I decided to wait.
Oh really? Dang it im already on my 3rd trimester. Im 28 weeks. I probably should wait huh
I have one that needs to be pulled but isn't bothering me so I decided to wait till after delivery to do it but my dentist said it just needs to be done before 3rd trimester.
