Tooth pulled?

Question

Does anyone know if I can get a tooth pulled while being pregnant? I have a bad cavity and I really want to get it pulled so infection isn't traveling to the baby. I'm aware I won't be able to take any strong pain meds but that's not an issue, I just want to know if I can have it taken out!

Answer

You can get it pulled. You also can get the cavity filled, they will just use a different kind of numbing med and might have to inject it two or three times during the actual filling because t wears off faster than novacaine. I've had a tooth pulled this pregnancy and a cavity filled haha

Answer

I have a tooth that is too far gon and a filling would do nothing. What they did was a temporary fix and once I have my baby I can go back for a root canal

Answer

Is it that far gone that you can't do a filling or root canal?

Answer

Yes you can, I did in my second trimester
