Pregnancy Dental Care

Pregnancy can change gum response and dietary patterns, so preventive dental care and professional advice remain important throughout pregnancy.

Common questions

Is routine dental care safe in pregnancy?

Routine assessment and preventive care are generally safe and important.

Can pregnancy damage teeth?

Pregnancy itself does not remove calcium from teeth, but diet and vomiting can affect oral health.

Do gums change?

Hormonal changes can make gums more reactive and prone to bleeding.
