Maternal health
Help patients understand the importance of oral care during pregnancy.
Oral care is an integral part of pregnancy treatment plans.
Pregnancy increases risk of bleeding gums.
Pregnant women often experience pregnancy gingivitis. This can permit bacteria to enter & spread throughout the body, which may lead to periodontitis, potentially increasing the risk of pregnancy complications & pre-term birth.*

What patients don’t know can matter greatly.
Patients don't always realize oral health care should be an integral part of their perinatal treatment plans.
