Pregnancy Oral Health
Pregnancy Oral health
Some women are prone to having some dental issues during their pregnancy – this is because a lot of changes are happening in the body, especially the hormonal aspect, which sometimes manifests orally. Some dental issues include gum inflammation, gum bleeding, shaky teeth and pregnancy tumors.
Having an optimal dental health would benefit both the mother and child’s overall health, hence it is advisable to visit the dentists regularly even before pregnancy and during pregnancy.
