The body of the expectant mother changes to meet the needs of the growing baby. Hormonal changes affect all systems, including the condition of bone tissue and teeth. The amount of calcium and phosphates in the blood decreases. The acidity of the oral environment increases, the sensitivity of tooth enamel increases and the risk of gum inflammation increases. Therefore, it is important to closely monitor dental health during pregnancy, even if nothing bothers the expectant mother.
The best time to visit a dentist is in the second trimester of pregnancy (from 14 to 20 weeks).
We offer gentle care programs specifically for patients expecting a baby.
Remineralization of teeth
Deep fluoridation, mineral saturation and strengthening of tooth enamel to prevent the development of caries and hypersensitivity of teeth. During the procedure, only restorative drugs allowed during pregnancy are used. Remineralizing therapy delivers essential trace elements to the tooth enamel, which are often lacking while waiting for a baby.
Professional oral hygiene
This is primarily the prevention of dental and gum diseases. The program includes the painless removal of soft and hard dental deposits, pigmented plaque, and lightening of the enamel by 1-2 tones. We use gentle but effective methods of cleaning and removing plaque, taking into account the delicate situation of patients: the Air-flow method, various polishing pastes and irrigation with antiseptic drugs.
Prevention of dental and oral diseases
A number of dental procedures are not recommended during pregnancy. Therefore, we recommend to all patients to prevent possible diseases of the oral cavity at the stage of pregnancy planning or at the earliest stages. The dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination, talk about the risks, preventive measures and teach personal hygiene in accordance with the individual characteristics of each patient.
