Hi, does anyone have experience with getting fillings done with anesthesia while 5 and 6 weeks pregnant?

    I just went on Wednesday to get a cavity filled. I'm 7 weeks pregnant. Anesthesia is totally fine (confirmed by my gynecologist and dentist). Don't put it off though, because your teeth can deteriorate during pregnancy.

    I have to go twice, I have 5 holes
    I might need 3 doses of anesthesia each time.

    According to my dentist, you shouldn't have regular anesthesia. But there's one that doesn't contain a certain substance; the normal one seems to be harmful.

    Then my dentist probably has that specific anesthesia. In the waiting room, there was a note saying you should mention if you're pregnant, but when I told her, she said the new anesthesia is harmless. And that's what the gynecologist also said. I'm from Belgium, not sure where you guys are from.
