For the safety of our pregnant patients,
we kindly require a written medical clearance from your OB-GYN (obstetrician/gynecologist) before any dental treatment.
This document should specify:
1)whether dental X-rays (with appropriate lead protection) are permitted;
2)which antibiotic(s), if any, may be prescribed, including the recommended dosage and duration;
3) which anti-inflammatory medication(s), if any, may be prescribed, including the recommended dosage and duration;
4) which pain relief medication(s), if any, may be prescribed, including the recommended dosage and duration;
5) which local anesthetic is recommended and whether it should be used with or without epinephrine (adrenaline), including the maximum recommended dosage.
This information enables us to provide the safest and most appropriate treatment for both mother and baby.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
