Fasting of a Pregnant Woman Suffering from Tooth Pain and Needing Treatment

Question
What is the ruling on a pregnant woman breaking her fast during Ramadan if she is suffering from tooth pain and needs to take medication?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible for a pregnant woman to break her fast initially out of fear for herself or her child. If another excuse is combined with it, the permissibility to break the fast becomes more obligatory, and God knows best.
