Therefore, the role of the dental surgeon at this stage is essential, mainly, contributing to safer circumstances for the child's birth. Therefore, the objective of this integrative review is to carry out a literature review on the main factors and care related to endodontic treatment during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The guiding question of the study was: “What are the main factors and care related to endodontic treatment in the periods of pregnancy and breastfeeding”. Searches were performed in PubMed/MEDLINE, Lilacs and SciELO databases until September 2021. A total of 10 studies published between 2008 and 2020 were included in this integrative review. It was possible to conclude that the type of local anesthetic, radiographic measurements and drug therapy are critical factors for a risk-free treatment for mother and baby.
