Absolutely: Since a nightguard is worn over the teeth and no chemicals are delivered into the body with its use, it is safe to use during pregnancy.

Yea: No problem. An effective night guard will help relieve jaw tension and TMJ symptoms related to stress. It may even help you through your pregnancy.
