Traditionally, general dentists have been reluctant to treat pregnant patients due to uncertainty of the risks that might be imposed on both the mother and the fetus. However, preventive, emergency, and routine dental procedures are all suitable during various phases of a pregnancy, with some treatment modifications and initial planning. This article will review some of the physiologic changes and oral pathology associated with pregnancy, and how these alterations affect dental care for the patient. A brief discussion concerning the risks and benefits of radiation, certain medications, and pre-natal fluoride is also given. Additionally, an overview of possible obstetric emergencies that may arise during a general dental appointment is presented with treatment options outlined.
