AnswerBank Answer:
Should I see the dentist when I'm pregnant?
Yes. Generally after the first trimester, cleanings and restorative work (fillings) are postponed until after the baby arrives. Anyone who is pregnant and is experiencing pain or trauma due to an accident should absolutely seek the care of their dentists, regardless of the stage of their pregnancy. It’s important to inform your dentist about your pregnancy so that X-rays and other procedures are avoided that may harm the baby.
