Dental hygiene becomes very important when you are expecting a child. During pregnancy, a woman’s gums swell along with the rest of her body. While swollen gums can be pretty painful, they can also pose a health risk to the unborn child.

Pregnancy hormones combine with plaque at the gum line, causing gum inflammation. Additionally, about 50 percent of pregnant women experience pregnancy gingivitis. Researchers have found that women who suffer from gum disease during pregnancy are more likely to give birth prematurely or to children with low birth weight. Both of these increase a baby’s chance of developing serious health problems such as cerebral palsy, blindness, and deafness.

To be safe, pregnant women should remove as much bacteria from their teeth as possible through brushing and flossing to prevent the bacteria from transferring to the fetus. Women who are attempting to get pregnant should consult a dentist, and get their teeth professionally cleaned every 3 months when they are expecting.
