During pregnancy , a lot of changes happen inside your body. You get morning sickness, you gain weight, and you become very fatigued. Another most important change that happens inside your pregnant body is an increased likelihood of developing gingivitis (a form of gum inflammation) and an increased chance of getting cavities, causing toothache during pregnancy.
Too bad that you suffer from a toothache during pregnancy – for whatever reason – the fact is that caring for a toothache at this time is going to be tricky. For one, you won’t be able to risk your child’s health by taking heavy-duty painkillers – for another, there’s always the risk of infection, and that doesn’t bode well for.
When iwas weeks my tooth hurt for almost weeks, it was very sensitive to cold and hot. I actually just went through this last week! I have a cracked tooth that had gotten so badly infected I was not sleeping and vomitting from the pain. I went into the ER to get some antibiotics and to be checked out.
Novocain and my doctor sent the dentist a note with what kind of pain meds I can have afterwards because I thought I was going to have to get the teeth pulled and it.
