Pregnancy is a special period in a woman's life, which is characterised by changes in the body. During pregnancy, special attention must be paid to health, not only for the woman's well-being, but also for the condition of the unborn child. As a rule, during these important nine months, strict restrictions are imposed on the number of interventions that can be carried out. This includes a sharp decrease in the number of drugs allowed for use.
But what to do if a pregnant woman has a dental disease that it is desirable to treat as soon as possible? This can happen even to women who strictly observes the rules of oral hygiene. Fortunately, dental treatment during pregnancy is possible - with a certain number of nuances.
Dental services for pregnant women in Odessa
During pregnancy, only emergency interventions that deal with life-threatening conditions for the expectant mother and her baby can be performed. Such conditions include:
- abscesses;
- trauma to the tooth;
- acute pulpitis;
- advanced tooth decay;
- inflammation associated with the advancement of wisdom teeth.
These conditions can be treated at any stage of pregnancy, as they carry a high risk of infection to the baby. Treatment is especially critical in the early stages of pregnancy.
When is it safe to have dental treatment in pregnancy?
Dental treatment during pregnancy is only possible after a thorough oral examination by a dentist. If the disease does not carry a risk of infection, it is desirable to postpone it until the postpartum period. If the intervention is still necessary, it is best to carry it out in the second trimester, since at this stage the main organs and systems of the baby are formed, and the risk of pathology in the child is practically absent.
