One of the problems with that is that at the very beginning of the pregnancy, when supposedly the baby is the most sensitive to foreign substances, you often don&#8217;t even know that you&#8217;re pregnant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Having said that, I don&#8217;t think you have anything to worry about. While during the last trimester, we&#8217;re trying to avoid stress on the mother, during the first trimester we are mostly just trying to avoid chemicals being introduced into your body that could be harmful to the baby. The only chemical introduced into your body during porcelain veneers treatment would be the local anesthetic, which is one of the safest medications there is. It has been used in millions of cases of pregnancy, including often during delivery itself, with no reported history of any harm to the baby. Lidocaine, which is the most commonly used local anesthetic for dental work, is one of the few medications proven to be safe during pregnancy.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: medium;\">&#8211; Dr. Hall<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Do you have a comment or anything else to add?
