Pregnancy and Dentistry
It is important to maintain excellent dental health and attend regular checkup and clean appointments during pregnancy. Whilst it is always best to complete any required dental treatment prior to pregnancy, it is considered safe to have digital x-rays and necessary treatment during your pregnancy (although best avoided during the first trimester unless a dental emergency).
Hormonal changes during pregnancy can affect the gums. Pregnant women may sometimes find that they have sore gums that bleed easily, or even develop gum lesions or lumps.
Pregnancy cravings can sometimes see patients indulging in sugary foods, which can increase the risk of tooth decay.
Morning sickness, particularly vomiting, can damage teeth. If this happens, rinse your mouth with water as soon as possible.
Ensure that any dental issues that were not dealt with due to pregnancy are managed promptly to prevent it from getting worse.
Remember, practicing good oral hygiene and consuming a healthy diet will go a long way in ensuring good dental health in the long term.
