Hi, m having wisdom tooth pain, as it s not erupting fully and my dentist says it will never. Ideally it needs to be extracted, but as I am 30 weeks pregnant, I cannot afford to do that. So, he suggested me with novamox 500 3 tablets a day for 3 days to reduce the pain. But even after 3 days the pain remains the same. What m I supposed to do now?
Hall madam welcome to Chat Doctor yes you cannot go for extraction during pregnancy. Only antibiotics will not be helpful it should be combined with an analgesic for relief. Warm salt water gargles 3-4 times a day will be helpful.a slight sublingual scaling below the periodontal flap/gum covering with atraumatic procedure could be very helpful in removing the debris. Take a consent from your GAEC before this procedure take care.
