Unfortunately, a common mistake is that pregnant women neglect or avoid dental visit before or during pregnancy. The so-called pregnancy gingivitis is a common phenomenon but if you do not treat it properly will lead to more serious problems.
During this period many hormonal changes occur in your body while consumption of sweets and snacks often increases. As a result, problems which might have existed before pregnancy will become more severe due to the hormonal changes and the increase of mouth bacteria. Additionally, vomit throughout the 1st semester of pregnancy produces an acidic environment in the mouth which has negative results on the teeth.
If you are already pregnant or plan to become pregnant, schedule a visit to your dentist. S/he will reassure you and give you the proper instructions so as to enjoy this beautiful period of your life.
