My wisdom tooth is coming through and it is sooo painful! bit worried about going to the dentist whilst pg as they will probably want to take an x-ray (if they do this with pg women) but also not sure how much can do about it really! feel quite miserable as can't really take an pain relief! xx

    i had my tooth out when i was 16 weeks pregnant,they wouldent give me a x ray and my normal dentist wouldent take it out,i had to be referd to hospical but i had to wait 3 weeks and was in so so much pain,i couldent eat,sleep or even go out the house, i was prescifed co codamol from my doctor,but my midwife advised agaist it,so i stuck with parcetamols even tho they dident work,eventally i went to a private dentist who took it out by local,needle in my gum! i was terrified lol but feel so muh better now its out!

    i was told by my midwife that i should get my tooth out as soon as coz it would distress the baby and he/she would feel unwanted!

    so i would advise to get it out as soon as! if your dentist wont do it get a referal from your doctor soon as hun, i know how much pain toothace is! love hayley xxxx ps dont let any dentist give you an x ray tho!
