Can you mend your teeth during pregnancy? Does pregnant fillings affect the fetus

After pregnancy, everything needs special care, especially to avoid some irritating pain, which may cause abortion. So if there is a problem with your teeth during pregnancy, can you mend your teeth during pregnancy? Let's get to know.

1. Oral health is still very important for fetal health. If pregnant women have infection focus in their oral cavity, such as periodontitis and gingivitis. Serious symptoms may cause abortion and premature delivery. Development can be affected just in the womb. Therefore, it is best to do a good job of teeth care before pregnancy. If there is a dental disease, it must be treated early to avoid aggravation during pregnancy.

2. However, if a woman has dental disease during pregnancy, she must be treated regularly as soon as possible, because she can't use painkillers by herself at this time. However, in the dental treatment, you must tell the doctor that you are pregnant, and then tell the doctor the period of pregnancy, so that the doctor can make the best treatment plan. Generally, if the teeth are painful due to inflammation, pain relief can be carried out, but if it is a big action like tooth extraction, it's better to do it after the middle of pregnancy, but it's better not to do it. But for dental fillings, they can usually be done during pregnancy. Because this kind of fillings will not bring serious pain, but we need to pay attention to the materials used for fillings, and the materials used must avoid adverse effects on the fetus.

3. However, if the pregnancy of pregnant women is particularly tense, it's better not to mend temporarily. If the tooth mending will cause severe pain, it will easily affect the mood of pregnant women, which is harmful to the health of the fetus. However, if it must be mended, it should not be mended in the early stage of pregnancy, but in the middle and late stage of pregnancy, so as to avoid miscarriage. If it's in the late pregnancy, it's necessary to stand up slowly after the completion of the filling. Avoid causing temporary vertigo. However, simple tooth filling is OK, but some long-lasting tooth filling is not suitable for pregnant women, neither physical nor mental.

From the above point of view, it is possible to fill teeth during pregnancy, but it is better to do a good job of teeth care before pregnancy. However, tooth extraction is not allowed during pregnancy. Because of the use of anesthetics, tooth extraction will cause adverse factors to the fetus, and the pain alone will make the pregnant woman unbearable, and may also cause early pregnancy abortion. So it's better to take care of the teeth when preparing for pregnancy.
