What is the effect of correcting teeth during pregnancy on the fetus?
I can tell you that the impact of orthodontics during pregnancy on the fetus is very limited. However, every pregnant woman's situation is unique, so it is best to consult your obstetrician and dentist before any orthodontic treatment.

Generally speaking, correcting teeth during pregnancy will not have a direct negative impact on the fetus. However, there are some factors to consider:

1. Drug use: Some drugs may be needed in orthodontic treatment, such as X-ray contrast agent or local anesthetic. The use of these drugs should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor and should be avoided as far as possible in the early pregnancy.

2. Toothache: During pregnancy, teeth may be more sensitive or painful due to changes in hormone levels. If you are undergoing orthodontic treatment and have pain, please inform your dentist in time so that they can provide appropriate advice and treatment.

3. Oral hygiene: It is very important to maintain good oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment during pregnancy. Regular brushing, flossing and mouthwash can help prevent gingivitis and other oral problems.

Generally speaking, orthodontic teeth during pregnancy have little influence on the fetus. But everyone's situation is different, so it is best to consult a professional doctor before any treatment.
