Pregnancy is surely a wonderful period that is also very hard and that is often accompanies by dental problems caused by calcium deficiencies. While many people still believe that going to the dentist can be dangerous for pregnant women and their babies, in most cases, there is no medical reason to defer dental treatments, what’s more, there are several dental problems, such as periodontal disease, that needs to be treated as soon as possible. Here are some treatments that should be performed during pregnancy as well:
- Cavities – whether it is a filling or an inlay you need, you should get that as soon as possible;
- Root canal treatments – these treatments are intended to stop and to remove infections, therefore they should be priorities. Modern method ensure that the pain related to the treatment is almost non-existent and that the procedure is safe for the patient and for the fetus as well;
- Dental cleaning – professional cleaning is essential for the health of your teeth, therefore it should never be neglected, not even during your pregnancy;
- Dental extractions – modern methods allow for tooth removal to be performed in complete safety as well, so no extraction should be postponed.
