local anesthesia in pregnancy for tooth extraction

[Dhano21]

Hi all is it safe to have local anesthesia in pregnancy. To extract a molar tooth ?

Are extractions safe ?

i have a root canaled tooth causing a lot of pain i am 28 weeks pregnant.

i am really scared please can someone comment .

Dentist here. Yes. Absolutely fine. Safer than risking untreated dental infections in pregnancy. Do this frequently. Never had an issue.

I had a wisdom tooth out while pregnant.. Just a few needles and absolutely no pain. Even managed a cheese sandwich a few hours later!

Yes I needed root canal while 27 weeks pregnant. Stressed myself out about it totally. It was all ok. Didn’t even take that long! So glad I got it sorted! Tooth pain is the worst. Good luck!

@bonzo77 hey thank you very much i don't think there is a infection i think they said there maybe a crack pls see the photo

It's upper molar 6 with the root canal.

i just want everything to be baby safe

@30degreesandmeltinghere @Highlandmama Thank you so much you beautiful ladies.

It's just i want everything to be baby safe .

I had a root canal, was all fine! I wouldn’t worry.

@30degreesandmeltinghere how many weeks were you when you had your extraction?
