Crowns Being Put On But Just Found Out I Am Pregnant! Posted: 03-16-05 16:49pm
Does anyone know if I have to get my mouth
numb to have the permanent crowns put on?
I don't want to do anything that would
hurt the baby. I just barely found out
that I was pregnant and already feel
queasy and wonder how they are going to
work on my mouth without me getting sick!
How long does it take to put the permanent
crown on?

Call your dentist and tell her/him that
you are pregnant .It may be possible to
have the crowns seated without
anesthetic,depending on your pain
tolerance and if the tooth has a root
canal,you will definately not need any
numbing.Your dentist may want to talk with
your ob/gyn to get clearance for
anesthetic.If needed.Just tell your dental
office ahead of time so they can plan what
is best for you.Good luck with your
pregnancy!!
