Yes: A problematic wisdom tooth can be removed during the third trimester of pregnancy after consultation and approval from your obstetrician. Your OB will provide information regarding what type of anesthesia can be utilized for the procedure and what type of medication(s) can be prescribed. Some wisdom teeth problems can be managed conservatively and surgery delayed until after delivery.
