Hygiene Guides

Oral hygiene for pregnant women

Pregnancy changes your body's chemistry, including in your mouth. Hormonal shifts increase the risk of gum problems.

Daily habits that help

  • Brush twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
  • Floss daily to prevent gum disease.
  • Keep regular dental check-ups through your pregnancy.
  • Tell your dentist about your pregnancy and any medications you take.

Good oral hygiene during pregnancy supports your overall health and reduces the risk of complications.
