i feel the same way!! i have been vomiting all throughout this pregnancy.. so i'm sure that the acid has worn down my enamel on my teeth, and they are defintely sensitive.. some times more than others... I also am the same way about the dentist.. i'm too scared to go.. i figure i'll just go after she gets here - though they do advise pregnant people to go to the dentist whiel pregnant, i am too scared to do it!  we have some fluride paste that i have put on my teeth a few times which did seem to help...other than that. theres not much that i personally do about it.. I've never had a cavity before, but i'm afraid when i go to the dentist my teeth will be in bad shape now after all the vomting and things!!! good luck!

Hey. My mom works at a dentist office. I have been twice since I became pregnant. I actually felt better and had less pain afterwords, because the hygientist knew I was pregnant so she took extra precautions so that it wouldn't hurt while she cleaned my teeth. I think I was being way too rough while flossing and that was causing a lot of pain.

Thank you ladies for the  replies :0) I went once around 16 weeks or so and I was horrified b.c they did x-rays they covered me well and all but I wont ever go back until my lil baby boy is in my arms :0) I called though and they told em to use synsodyne (sp?)  tooth paste and that has seemed to help I also rinse with luke warm salt water it works wondersive felt better... again Thank you Ladies!!!
