Oral Pain Relief
I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I just got a bunch of dental work done.. my teeth and causing me so much pain. I have a oral pain relief anesthetic liquid, is it safe for me to use it? It doesn't say anywhere on the label about being pregnant. I'm just trying to not take as much acetaminophen pills as I can, if any.
I think I'll try the warm salt water! I'm wanting to try anything right now.. I was going to call my doctor but as soon as I even had time their office was closed.
Unfortunately, tylenol doesn't help much for tooth issues. We often advise patients to use ibuprofen but since you can't take that try warm salt water rinse. If it's your gum tissues bothering you try Orabase B. It's usually near the Orajel at the grocery store. It's normal to have sensitivity for a day or two after having a lot of dental work but if the pain persists I would advise you to contact your dentist.
You should call your doctor
