Congratulations on your pregnancy! I understand that being an expecting mom shifts your priorities, making your baby's health the number one of your concerns. If you were diagnosed with a tooth in need of a root canal, the problem should be addressed as soon as possible. If your tooth presents with an infection, hence the need of a root canal, leaving it untreated could cause some serious problems to your health. Considering that you are on your second trimester, I recommend a consultation with your dentist to determine the source of your sensitivity and treat it properly. I wish all the best. READ MORE
