Pregnancy and Tooth Aches HELPPP :/

[Schaina]

so I've been having the worlds worst tooth ache for a few weeks now . it's not like everyday but it comes on and off unexpectedly I tried to sleep it off but when I wake up it's still here . any home remedies I can try please help it ***** a** an this pain is so crucial

[Schaina]

you would think Ice would make it worse because it's so cold

[Marissalara]

I remember that pain it was terrible. All that helped me was to put a Baggie of ice on my teeth. I haven't had the aches in a few months though, I'm 39 weeks now

[Schaina]

I'll be making my appointment tomorrow . this is like the 3rd time my tooth has been aching but the first 2 times the pain didn't last all day but this time the pain was all day it's tolerable but still hurts . I didn't make an appointment earlier on because I kept getting its fine to go to the dentist and it wasn't fine so I was a bit confused on what to do

My husband is a dentist and you should go see a dentist. You could have an infection. Its recommended to go see a dentist while pregnant.

I had a tooth ache during my first trimester. your seed is pulling your calcium out of your teeth. it does suck

[Schaina]

I will thanks again

Well you can call them & tell them the situation your in. They'll gladly write you one. I had to call mine because my appt to see my doc was 3 weeks later & I needed a dentist asap lol.  But if you think you can wait then just make sure to to tell them.

[Schaina]

I don't see my doctor until the 8th but if it's safer to wait and get a note I'll do so

[scillacts]

First get a okay & a note ffrom your doctor, call them tmrw if they can write a note out asap that way you can make an appt asap. Then set up an appt to see your dentist make sure they know your pregnant because they may do x ray. The pain your feeling it was like that 2 months ago. I couldn't take the pain no more so they ended up had to do oral surgery to pull the teeth out & oh man was that a life saver didn't even feel pain no more. Oragel only helps for awhile but when it wears off the pain so unbearable. You also may have an infection as well.

thanks ladies I will definitely make an appointment I can't take this pain at all any more

I had the same issue I had an X-ray and toothe removal and baby is healthy as it can be, you definitely need a permit relieve trust go before it gets infected than the pain will last longer I feel so much better now!

[Destynee2015]

You can definitely see a dentist during pregnancy. Its actually recommended. Just be sure to tell the dentist your pregnant so they will not do xrays or anything not safe for baby. Thats your best bet. Orajel will work but u want permanant relief not just temporary. Take care.

[Schaina]

I'll make a dentist appointment then go from there thanks

[Schaina]

okay thanks

[NewmommyTee]

Get the maximum strength orajel

[Schaina]

omg I just tried to drink some milk it eased the pain for a couple of mins but once those couple of mins ran out boom the pain . I'll be doing a store run for orajel is there a specific kind id have to get ???

I had to end up getting a wisdom tooth pulled a few months back, as long as they don't have to do any surgical work most dentist don't have a problem pulling a tooth if need with local numbing agents. As far as pain control I went through 2 tubes of oraljel in a couple of months, if it seems to come on at night I use to take one Tylenol before I went to bed to help ease the pain.

[Schaina]

omg thanks . I'm about to down 2 glasses right now I can't take this pain

Because we can't see a dentist,  we have to rely on Orajel. I was 7 weeks when the aches came, applied Orajel and they have yet to come back at 14 weeks. The baby is pulling calcium from your body.  Increase your calcium intake (fortified OJ, milk, etc)
