Dentist & the 2WW

Hi. I'm a regular poster yada yada you know the deal.

Didn't think I'd do the whole secret identity thing but here I am.

Anyway, I did a search but I didn't get the complete answer to my question.

I think I might need a root canal so I will probably need X-rays. Can I do that while in the 2WW? If it turns out that I am pg - do I have to wait until the 2nd Tri because of the X-rays I'll probably need?

Baby dust to all the TTCers! I'm excited to be joining you!

Re: Dentist & the 2WW

I had to have dental implants put in in Jan. My OB/GYN said to hold off TTC until after the procedure because of the Xrays and antibiotics.

If you can, I'd wait until the 2WW is up and if you are not PG, schedule the procedure and hold off on TCC for that month. If you are PG I'd talk to you OB/GYN about how to proceed. I was told that is would be better to wait until after the 1st trimester if dental surgery was necessary.


HTH!
