Did my dental x-rays harm my baby? (first trimester)
According to the American College of Radiology, no single diagnostic x-ray has a radiation dose significant enough to cause adverse effects in a developing embryo or fetus. According to the ADA and ACOG, having dental X-rays during your pregnancy is considered safe with appropriate shielding. Suggestions for addressing your pregnancy and dental work needs: The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends pregnant women eat a balanced diet, brush their teeth thoroughly with an ADA-approved fluoride toothpaste twice a day, and floss daily. Have preventive exams and cleanings during your pregnancy. Let your dentist know you are pregnant. Postpone non-emergency dental work until the second trimester or after delivery, if possible. Elective procedures should be postponed until after the delivery. Maintain healthy circulation by keeping your legs uncrossed while you sit in the dentist’s chair. Take a pillow to help keep you and the baby more comfortable. Bring headphones and some favorite music. READ MORE
