Pregnancy Gingivitis

[Sheree.A]

Hi ladies,

Just got back from a visit to the dentist..

Turns out I have another one of the many joys of pregnancy...pregnancy gingivitis!!

The dentist gave me a scale and clean and oh gees it hurt and my gum bled so much!!

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? please share..

All my other work eg xray/fillings will wait till after the bub.

Yep! I feel your pain.
I had a check up a couple of weeks ago and it was awful...I've never been bothered much by dentist appointments but this one was grated on my nerves terribly.
The dentist told me to come back for a filling the next week and I haven't been back yet I just can't bear the thought right now!

its very common!! just keep up the gentle brushing, flossing and mouthwash!
