toothache

[huntsgirl]

I'm seriously going to pass out. My tooth is killing me. I know I need a filling but I think I read you can't get anythings done to your teeth while pregnant.  I'm 26 weeks so I have 14 weeks or less what can I do for pain

Yes you can have dental work done prego. I work at a dental office and see lots of prego mamas :) just call your dentist and let them know about the pain! Depending on how long ago you had the decay diagnosed and had x-rays taken they may want to take a new x-Ray if the symptoms have changed. (You can decide with dr if that's something that's safe/recommended) Just talk to your dentist and he will help! Hope you feel better soon.

Yes go to the dentist. Dental work is completely safe in second trimester!

That sounds better then sucking on the garlic as it burns how much do u chop up

They can do dental while your pregnant I've done it a lot. But you can chop up a clove of garlic and swallow it with water, and it will help with the pain in a day or two. But you have to do it every day. It's nasty but it works
