In general, necessary dental treatment, including root canal treatment, can be safely provided during pregnancy when clinically indicated.
The American Dental Association states that diagnostic and restorative dental treatment is safe throughout pregnancy and that necessary emergency treatments such as root canals can be performed during pregnancy.
If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant, inform your dentist before treatment. Your dentist can coordinate care appropriately and select suitable medications and radiographic precautions when required.
Do not postpone urgent dental treatment solely because you are pregnant without discussing it with your dentist and obstetrician.
Certain issues can be considered in case of root canal carrying out on a pregnant woman:
Treatment timing
A consideration must be made that weighs the timing of the pregnant patient's root canal treatment in regards to their overall comfort and the well being of them and their fetus.
Appointment length and number of visits
Instead of one relatively longer appointment, in order to keep a pregnant patient physically comfortable, their root canal treatment may need to be divided into shorter visits.
The use of radiographs (x-rays)
However, it is likely that we will want to employ techniques that help them to keep the needed number of x-rays to a minimum in order to avoid the fetus to get exposed to X-rays. The use of Apex Locator avoids the x-rays. In case, if x-ray is needed, we have lead apron to protect body of patient and baby to prevent x-ray radiation hazards.
