My wisdom tooth on my left side has started to hurt really bad it also bleeds alot now and on my Right it looks like my gum is starting to get infected it has this white bubble sitting on top of it
I asked my mom and she said she wouldn't suggest getting them pulled after the baby is born is there any one who can help I need some opinions bought getting them pulled / or what you used to stop the pain

Thank you in advance

Dental problems in pregnancy can be a big deal. All the increased blood flow can lead to swelling of the gums which can lead to bacteria being stuck in crevices that weren't there before. You should still be seeing your dentist regularly during pregnancy.y dentist actually recommends cleanings every 3 months during pregnancy as opposed to the norm of every 6-12 months. If you suspect an infection though that should be addressed right away before it leads to bigger issues.

At least go in a get checked. They won't pull with an active infection anyway.  But at least they can give you antibiotics to kill the infection. For pain relief is really just Tylenol and oragel, although some docs will prescribe narcotics. But once the infection is controlled that will subdue the pain.

I use to be an oral surgery assistant. It's always best to wait for anything since the numbing medicine isn't the best for the baby. If you need it taken out you will need a drs not from your OB. Having an infection isn't good either. Rinse your mouth out with mouthwash to help clean the bacteria. We use to say it's best to wait, but infections always came first to remove.
