Pregnant women can and do have root canals. Having a root canal does require a small x-ray, but the radiation exposure is very minimal and the x-ray is aimed at the mouth, not the abdomen area. If you are pregnant and your dentist needs to give you an x-ray, he will use a lead apron to cover your belly. The anesthetics that dentists use are also safe for pregnant women.
Be sure to let your dentist know beforehand if you are pregnant.

Well, you would need to talk to your dentist really, You could try and search it on the internet as well?
