Hello all, just a little comfort I'm looking for here. This is my third and I've always had at least 1-2 teeth out per pregnancy but this pregnancy has been the worst! I've had HG For the first time this time ( which has calmed down a lot) but after all that throwing up 3 of my top teeth at the front cracked and fell out and one needs coming out due to it really hurting! I was devestated. Now I need 4 teeth out tommorow under general anesthetic I was supposed
To be sedated but can't because of the baby but also not walking around with 4 missing teeth either. I have a phobia of dentists and I'm always put to sleep and I'm scared for tommorow which is making my anxiety
Go crazy to have all these teeth out awake at 19 weeks pregnant. I'm in alot of pain so I can't even put it off. The teeth are cracked too so 3 of them is the root there taking out one is a whole tooth, I don't know what I'm looking for posting this I'm just petrifed

Oh my, no advice just a hand hold x

Hope getting them out isn't too bad 🩷

Will they offer implants on NHS or anything? You can get payment plans for private implants too if you want them.

I got a molar implant for 3k and spread it out over a year and a half. I think molars are more expensive though.

Wishing you all the best and congratulations on ur pregnancy :)

I really feel for you! I have always looked after my teeth quite obsessively, I am really big on dental hygiene. Pregnancy with my first RUINED them. Not quite as bad as your story but I was eating a jacket potato and my back tooth cracked. Then I went on to have a further 2 fillings for the first time ever and now I’ve had to have that original tooth that cracked pulled out. Pregnancy with my second I didn’t have any issues but I’m just over 4 weeks pregnant with my third and have my teeth hurting me already in 3 different areas, I’m terrified to go to the dentist 😩😩😩
