I go to the dentist MORE when I am pregnant, because of that whole bleeding gums thing. I went 3 times in DD's pregnancy - once at 12 weeks, once at 27, and then I had a wisdom tooth out at 30 or so. It could have waited, but I figured it was ideal to get it out while I had time to recover, and the dentist had no problems doing it.

Gum disease has been linked to low birthweight babies, so it's really important to be completely on top of your dental hygiene.

My dentist also only said no x-rays.
