I didnt read all the above posts. I had a tooth break with a huge cavity in it when I was 35 weeks. I got two teeth pulled. I would call your OB and see what they reccomend.
i had a tooth pulled out a week ago, it really isnt that bad (this coming from a girl who is terrified of going to the dentist) also i had work done when i was pregnant with my son who is a healthy 4 year old. go get it fixed. even a few hours of being uncomfortable are worth the relief. just dont use the gas. good luck and take care of yourself. you def want to get it done asap and you dont want to be nursing a sore tooth and possible healing and a newborn.
A couple of things to think about....
tooth problems during pregnancy can be bad. REALLY bad.
You probably won't be induced...they will probably put you on antibiotics. I had surgery at 34w5d and I was put COMPLETELY under general anesthesia...so I know, from experience, that a surgery requiring twilight or novacaine is generally considered safe if there's a serious problem.
you need to call the doctor or dentist TOMORROW....an infection in your gums/teeth can actually cause an infection and heart problems with you and/or the baby...i know it sounds crazy but I'm sure you've heard before that tooth health is very important during pregnancy - that's why.
so you need to get on antibiotics, stat, and get a plan for what to do...like i said they probably won't induce, might remove the tooth which is pretty safe at this point - at worst they might give you some pain meds, antibiotics, and yank it right after baby's born...and yes pain meds are perfectly safe at this point - you wouldn't be taking them long enough to get baby addicted.
Please please don't wait to call the doc...tooth infection = needs attention NOW during pregnancy.
good luck...and don't worry, they'll be able to take care of it for you :-)
My next appointment I will be 36w3d so I will talk to my dr and see what he thinks.
You could talk to them about it but you are not full term at this point.. and I think they would probably prefer you do the antibotics at this time..
They would probably be wanting to monitor you either way for hte onset of infection... they might just remove the abscessed tooth and leave the wisdom teeth for a couple weeks down the road... Maybe see what your options are
