Hi all, just need a bit of advice. Have got very severe toothache in one of my back teeth, I visited the dentist last week and he advised me that I'd either need root canal treatment or it would have to be pulled out. He said he can't really do either as I'm 31weeks pregnant. Instead he gave me a course of antibiotics to take. They've not worked and the toothache is that severe I can't eat or sleep and have been crying! Have an appointment at the dentist later today but is it really that unsafe to extract a tooth in pregnancy? I'm in that much pain I just want it out!
Thanks
