Question:
Crowns and Pregnancy: I went to the dentist at the beginning of the month to get a crown on my front tooth. I am still waiting for the permanent tooth.

I'm concerned with pregnancy. If I am pregnant I will know the day of the procedure of putting in my porcelain/permanent tooth. I wasn't concerned because they said it would take 2 weeks for the whole procedure, but it's been dragging...so I continued trying unaware that it would take this long.

If I AM pregnant, can I finish getting the crown put in? Do they have to numb me or do you think with some heavy breathing and meditation I can pull through with the cementing of the tooth? ...Visitor from PA

Answer:
Please do not worry about this situation. Most dentists, most of the time, do not numb up their patients to put on a crown.

It is almost always a very easy process that involves minimal momentary, if any discomfort. If in your given situation, after you ask your dentist, he/she needs to get you numb this will not interfere with your pregnancy. Good luck and have a healthy newborn!
