I actually had a really poor dental job done before I became pregnant and than she expected me to pull the money out of pocket to pay for her screw up which was not going to happen and pregnancy hasn't helped with the problem but thanks ill consider putting more calcium in my diet.

Bubblesbaby makes sense becuz my teeth were getting very sensitive and then I started consuming a lot of calcium, I was even worried too much calcium! but my teeth stopped hurting :)

You have to call your case worker. Most do tho. My Medicaid only covers vision and not dental. I'm in need of a cleaning...no other major work tho
