Teeth during the time of pregnancy: the first visit to the dentist
Ideally, it is advisable to treat acute teeth problems before pregnancy planning. However, it is not always possible. It sometimes happens that you get notified about occasional problems in oral cavity during the time of your first visit to the dentist. What should be done in this case? Serious manipulations, like caries treatment with the use of anesthesia, should be laid aside for a while. Instead, you may consult your dentist about the right choice of the toothpaste to stop caries expansion even further.
