Brushing teeth and pregnancy?!
Question: Brushing teeth and pregnancy.?
Since becoming pregnant, the last few weeks have been pretty miserable.. I start out my day by puking.. That's because brushing my teeth makes me so sick.. I have changed toothpastes 3 times...... I'm now using the Crest for Kids that has a mild flavor...... but still I throw up while brushing my teeth.. Obviously, I have to brush my teeth...... has this happened with anybody else, if so what did you do to help it.?Health Question & Answer

Thankfully I didn't have that problem *knocks on wood*.. However I did have some patients who had the same problem.. We found that the citrus flavor Colgate Expressions did the trick, especially if things like preggy pops and sour candy help ease your nausea.. If that doesn't work toothpaste isn't essential.. You could just wet your toothbrush, then swish with ACT fluoride rinse afterwards for the "fresh mouth" taste and more importantly for the fluoride..Health Question & Answer
