Gum disease?

[muminshock]

Anyone get gum disease in pregnancy?

I am so over it. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I get it every time with massive tumours that I need to have removed :(

It's such a pain in the backside because not only do my gums bleed like crazy when I brush but I will ALWAYS finish off brushing my teeth with a good old morning sickness vomit:barf:

Not looking forward to the scalpel in the gob again :no:

Hey.

Im hearing you, i had to take a visit to the dentist just before chrissy as my wisdom tooth is infected. Dentist told me that it just a change in hormones when you are pregnant, so then i was placed on antibiotics, but every time i clean my teeth i too bleed like crazy.

You poor thing, well fingers crossed it eases off a bit for us. :)

Remember to brush all your gums and teeth. don't get slack in this. Don't get in a bad routine of not brushing. or even missing a spot. it could be detrimental to your teeth. Good luck. If u don't understand write me and I'll try to be more specific. Happy brushing, start with a child or soft brush.

Well tomorrow is the big day. Tumour is coming off!
I can't wait (although crapping my pants at the same time) because this 'thing' is now as big as 3 teeth. At least those 3 teeth will get to see what a toothbrush looks like again... oh the joys!
