you're not allowed to havbe dental work done when your pregnant. The only thing thy can do is clean your teeth, and thats in the second trimester. I would strongly adviise calling your ortho and telling him. It could lead to a misscarry if not.

Lol uhm.

The dentist does need to know you're pregnant. And they can do dental work, if they have to give you medication, they'll give you medication that you can use during pregnancy so it doesn't hurt the baby.

I know this because I had a dentist appt. Yesterday and he told me what I just told you.
