    I think with wisdom teeth there is always a risk of infection... and you don't want that getting into your blood.
    I had minor work with a local done when I was in 3rd tri last time, and it was all good!

    Hi Deirdre, I had the same question a couple of weeks ago! Join the club! I went to the dentist last week and needed two fillings side by side as I was in a bit of pain. I will be going again next week for another one as it can't wait. My dentist was great and said that it's perfectly fine during pregnancy - just tell them that you're pregnant though that's all. A local anesthetic is fine though, I just think x-rays and general anesthetic are not too good during pregnancy.

    I hope your visit to the dentist goes well xxoo
