I've been suffering with my wisdom tooth coming through for the past few days. Does anyone know of anything that is safe to me to use or take to help the pain in early pregnancy?

Have you tried hot salt water mouth rinse? Just hold it over affected area til the heat has gone and repeat. It's the only thing my dentist recommends in pregnancy, I have been doing it. It tastes grim but it's surprising how much it helps! HTH!

Google oil of cloves. Maybe suitable when pregnant.

Hope you feel better soon
