Dental quest. When prego

So I'm going to the dentist 2morow to fill a cavity that came out a while back. I'm wondering if the medicine they use to make it numb is ok??? Or should I just get cleaning done? & pls. Do not respond "ask your doctor" lol

Thanks :)

I went to the dentist at the beginning of my pregnancy and they always make me update my health history and ask if I'm pregnant. Then they adjust their plan accordingly. I would just make sure your dentist understands your pregnant and they should know what is and isn't safe for use during pregnancy. I've heard of women having surgery while pregnant and things going just fine so I'm sure there is something safe that can be used you will just have to ask them :)
