Yes! It is strongly advised to continue with your regular dental visits when pregnant to prevent any existing dental conditions from turning into an emergency. Pregnancy hormones have been known to increase your risk of developing gingivitis, so it is important to keep up with your regular cleanings to keep it in check! Although we may limit x-rays to the most urgent situations until after the baby is born, if x-rays are required, the lead shields are there to protect both mom and baby. If any treatment is needed, you can still be numb for your procedure as we have anesthetic options that are safe to use during pregnancy. Congrats on the new addition to your family!
