A member asked:
Does tooth cavity\decay affect pregnancy ?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
One way that it : Could adversely impact pregnancy is if an infection spreads. For instance, if you were to develop an abscess. If you are asking for yourself, would encourage you to see your dentist. I am sure that healthtap dentists will also respond to your question and can provide more insights into this matter.

Yes: You don't want the pus from infected teeth spreading through our body and harming the baby. Don't wait, call a Dentist NOW.
