Yes, oral health is extremely important especially during pregnancy. Generally the second trimester is the safest time for both the mother and the baby to perform procedures. Prior to your first visit, it is best to obtain a release form from your doctor indicating that you can visit a dental office. Unless of emergency, we will not be able to take X-rays during this visit (so it is advised to come in for a full check up before contraception if possible).

Novocain is a local anesthetic used to numb only a particular area of the mouth. Nitrous oxide is a conscious sedation that is used to minimize anxiety – when used, a patient will be awake and somewhat aware, but will often feel like they are floating. Intravenous, or IV sedation is a conscious sedation that is used to minimize anxiety and affect memory – when used, a patient will be asleep for part or all of the procedure and will often not remember the procedure at all. Generally, the dentists will use a numbing gel or local anesthetic during treatments if needed. Oral sedation may also be available, pending the patient's medical history - be sure to discuss this with your dentist to determine if you're a good candidate.
