Teeth after c section

3 replies

I had an elective c section 3 month ago. Not long after it I noticed that I had lost my 'bite': my top and bottom back teeth don't fit together on either side anymore. It's got a bit better but it's still not right. My teeth feel all wrong when I try to align my teeth the way they were before. What on earth is going on? This just happened right after I had the baby. Teeth were fine in pregnancy.

Gosh, I've never heard of that happening! Hope someone comes along with an answer for you.

See your dentist. Your teeth need extra care during and after pregnancy anyway.

This is odd, I noticed my bite was off after my c section. It was like my jaw didn’t align like it used to. It did go back to normal pretty quickly though, after a couple of weeks. I’m also 3 months pp. I thought maybe I’d imagined it but interesting you’ve had the same!
