Write a new blog

26-2-2009 - ouch!

My mood while writing this blog:
relaxed

every single one of my teeth hurt.. i feel like my gums are going to tear off and all my teeth are going to fall out! haha its crazy i know.. but ive never felt like this before. i JUST went to the dentist in december, so i know everything in there is ok. i have read before that your gums can bleed when youre pregnant, but ive never expierienced that... in my last pregnancy or in this one.. my mouth just hurts... if i bite down with my teeth- it feels like all my teeth have huge cavities in them. i guess its just more sensitive this time around.

is this happening to anyone else? please put my mind at ease!!!!!!!!

have a wonderful day =o)

You need to get some Corsodyl, it sounds like you have gum disease. It works wonders for me x

I have had the same problem with my teeth i have been told i have gingivitis (Gum Infection) so just have to use Corsodyl Mouthwash and it really does help

shame that sounds awful. I don't have any teeth or gum issues, rather nose bleeds... Weird. I think we are all different and will experience different things. Just relax and if they do start bleeding get them checked out!..all the best

HI, I have the same problem some days but put it down to gritting my teeth when i am asleep. Hopefully it should ease up with time. Take care xxxx

when you are pregnant, your body makes twice as much blood to support the placenta and thus the baby - all the blood flow is especially noticeable in areas with lots of blood flow near the surface, like your gums and the lining of the inside of your nose. This can make your teeth hyper sensitive. You might want to try Sensodyne tooth paste to help with the sensitivity. Your body should get used to the new increased blood flow, and the painful teeth should ease up! (happened to me!) The other option, is there any chance you're grinding your teeth in your sleep? Sometimes in pregnancy you grit and grind your teeth, especially if you are deeply dreaming. Ask Charlie to keep an eye on what you're your doing some night in your sleep! You can get a mouth guard if this is the case. Hope the pain subsides soon!

Hey there, I'm not having this right now but what you're feeling sounds exactly like how I feel when I have a sinus infection coming on...do you have allergies and/or sinus problems? If so, that could be the culprit. Good luck hun!
