severe toothache
Hi I'm 8+4 today. I was having severe toothache from day b4 yesterday .went to the dentist n she said that tooth was decayed n extraction .ws the only thing to do. But i''ve to wait till i deliver for that . She gave me antibiotics, paracetamol 650mg n a multivitamin. I .ws in so much pain that i took paracetamol 2 times yesterday. After lunch n after dinner. Will the baby be ok? I'm worried .
Oh okay. Yeah you can get it removed but you just won't be able to have nitrous oxide or be put to sleep. But you can have novicaine.
Actually it's my wisdom tooth , left lower jaw. It's severely decayed n it's not properly erupted even. So i dunno if RTC can be done. I consulted 2 dentists they both said the same thing to
It is safer to get it pulled or do a root canal than to put you on antibiotics and other medication in the first trimester especially. That is crazy!
You do not need to wait until you deliver. And you also have a choice of doing a root canal so you cN keep the tooth unless the tooth is too far decayed for that. I am a Licensed Dental Assistant.
