When does teeth sensitivity start in pregnancy?

Oh, teeth sensitivity! I get so anxious about every little change during pregnancy. It can actually start quite early, even in the first trimester, because of all the hormonal shifts. It's always good to talk to your dentist about it just to be sure everything is okay.

Sometimes just rinsing with warm salt water can help with mild sensitivity. But if it's bothering you a lot or feels very strong, please consult your dentist. Pregnancy can make your gums and teeth more sensitive, so a check-up is always a good idea.

Generally, teeth sensitivity can appear anytime during pregnancy, but it's more common in the first or second trimesters. Hormones and morning sickness, which can expose teeth to stomach acid, play a big role. Using a soft toothbrush and sensitive toothpaste can offer some relief.

My sister was pregnant last year and she started complaining about sensitive teeth around her second trimester. She said it was like randomly happening with cold stuff. I guess it's just one of those random pregnancy things, but she still asked her doc.
