Oral care in pregnancy

Journal Title: Journal of the Turkish-German Gynecological Association - Year 2019, Vol 20, Issue 4

Abstract

Pregnant women are susceptible to a wide range of oral health conditions that could be harmful to their own health and the future of their baby. There are many myths about the safety of dental care during pregnancy. As a result, pregnant women receive less dental care than when they are not pregnant. In our review, we tried to emphasize the importance and safety of routine dental care for pregnant women.
