Probably not: You may be grinding your teeth, your gums may be inflamed, or you may even have a deep cavity... Pregnancy not the cause. Any sinus problems? Those can contribute, too. Speak to your dentist and your obgyn.

See your dentist: If you are pregnant and have a toothache, do not hesitate to take an appointment with your dentist notifying him/her that you are pregnant. Ignore the widely spread misconception that you should not have dental treatment during pregnancy because it could harm the fetus. See your dentist ASAP.
