Patient's question:
If I get my teeth filled on the first day and ovulation happens the next day, will pregnancy have any effect on the fetus?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if there is no infection and only the filling material has fallen off, and it does not involve the nerve, you can go to the hospital for examination and have the filling material packed in. Dental treatment is only a local measure and has no effect on the fetus. It is recommended to maintain oral hygiene, use a mild saltwater rinse, and supplement calcium appropriately during the second trimester while eating high-nutrient foods. It is also recommended to have prenatal check-ups, including the Down syndrome screening between weeks 14-19, the 4D ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening between weeks 22-26, and if necessary, amniocentesis and cord blood analysis between weeks 16-20.
