Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have a 4-month-baby boy. I am doing breastfeeding. My tooth is entirely damaged. So I am planning to remove my tooth. Is it correct or not? I am taking medicine for it. Please tell me a suggestion.

Answered by Dr. Naveen Thomas

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It is better to remove a damaged tooth. You can take some antibiotics and painkiller medicines. Take Amoxicillin 500 mg for three days after extraction. It does not affect your kid. Ask your dentist about particular medications while breastfeeding.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
