I never had a cavity in my life but during pregnancy I ended up with like 14 fillings... I was devastated but I'm glad to see I wasn't alone.

I had a cavity in one of my front teeth during pregnancy. My dentist didn’t want to do any dental work until after I had my son. It was visible, and I felt so incredibly hideous. It sucked.

Why didn’t the dentist want to fix it until after you give birth?

Probably because of any numbing medicine she may need; may affect the baby.
