[|AI|]  HelloThanks for writing to us with your health concern. Fainting and syncope during pregnancy can be devastating for the baby. Particularly at 33 weeks, this might endanger the baby. If the tooth extraction can wait, please ask your dental surgeon if you can defer the surgery for a month or two. By the time, you would have delivered. If it is a non-emergency procedure that is being planned, it is best to let it wait until your delivery. If it is an emergency one, then it cannot obviously wait. You have to go for it with full precautions, which includes informing your obstetrician and keeping all preparations accordingly. Make sure that you are given adequate anesthesia, and all Chat Doctor. Also, make sure proper antibiotics are administered around the procedure, so that you can be free from infection. All the betake care.
