I just read Ibu Arifa 's posting about ' check gigi' and I wanna let you all know, is coincidence...

Am not sure what the causes but probably calcium deficiency in my body. I admit, I seldom drink milk compare when I pregnant to Shukrina.

There is no hole, but there is quite a big gap between teeth. And I try to check whether this tooth ' goyang' or not and yes, 'goyang' a bit laaa..huhuh. Me no longer comfortable chewing food using this painful side.

I am just afraid to see dentist as I have been influenced by common misconception that having dental treatment performed while pregnant maybe harmful to your unborn child.

But after further reading, I think I shall make an appointment with dentist tomorrow because I cannot tahan already !! Moreover, it is billed to my company, so why should I bother and let myself suffer , kan.

Here go some info that bring out the courage inside me to see dentist.

Pregnancy toothache due to blocked sinuses

Many pregnant women suffer from toothache due to blocked sinuses, the pain from the blocked sinus is referred to the mouth or teeth. Try putting a your face over a bowel of steaming hot water with a towel over your head to stop the steam escaping. This will help draw the blocked fluid from your sinuses.

Pregnancy toothache due to calcium deficiency

Often pregnant toothache is caused by a calcium deficiency. The baby is using calcium as it develops bones and teeth and the pregnant mother is left deficient. This can weaken the teeth and cause pregnancy toothaches.

"Your dentist is the only person qualified to deal with dental pain, and has sufficient training to take your pregnancy into consideration. The alternative of pain-relieving drugs is far more harmful, so go and see your dentist, please!"

Hopefully, nothing worse and shooo the pain away soonest possible . Kawan-kawan, doakan saya ok !
