Gingivitis: How should mom respond ?

1. go to the dental clinic regularly for oral health care.

2. Dental treatment is not recommended during pregnancy, but if you have a dental problem, you can treat your oral condition 3 to 7 months after pregnancy.

3. If the mother’s mouth is not clean during pregnancy, it will affect the health of the gums. You must rinse your mouth after each meal, brush your teeth before going to bed, and keep your mouth clean.

4. Expectant mothers during pregnancy need more nutrients than usual. Therefore, expectant mothers should add enough nutrients and eat more foods that are good for the teeth.

5. When the mother is brushing her teeth, use floss to remove the bacteria and food residue from the teeth.

6. Expectant mothers should choose softer foods that do not need to be chewed and are easily digested to reduce the burden on the gums.

7. Expectant mothers should eat more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin C to reduce capillary permeability which leads to easy bleeding.
