According to preliminary data from DANE, 140,090 births were registered during the first quarter of 2021<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When a woman learns she will become a mother, her life takes a 180-degree turn. With this news, all the preparations begin to welcome the future baby. In addition, constant checkup appointments with the gynecologist, ultrasounds, and all the common care that pregnant women must follow begin. <\/p>\n

However, throughout this process the expectant mother forgets to care for her body in a balanced way, since hormonal changes can cause various complications, as occurs with oral problems.<\/p>\n

The specialists at La Cl\u00ednica Dental Polanco V<\/strong><\/a> agree that, with all the changes in the body during pregnancy, various oral health problems can occur, such as:<\/p>\n

Gingivitis: <\/strong><\/h3>\n

considerable inflammation of the gums, pain may occur when touched and, commonly, bleeding during tooth brushing. This condition occurs due to elevated progesterone levels. If not treated in time, the problem can worsen until it becomes periodontitis. <\/p>\n

Periodontitis:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is a serious gum disease that occurs when there is inflammation and infection in the gums and in the bones that hold the teeth in place, which can loosen the teeth.<\/p>\n

Loose Teeth:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Contrary to the myth that the fetus during its development can absorb elements such as calcium from the mother’s bones and, with this, cause the teeth to loosen, the reality is different. Due to elevated levels of hormones such as progesterone and estrogen, the tissues and bones that hold the teeth in place are affected, which can loosen them to such a degree that they end up falling out. <\/p>\n

Dental Cavities:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

During pregnancy, the acids in the mouth become corrosive components, which can break down tooth enamel. In addition, during pregnancy nausea and vomiting occur frequently, which causes acid to remain in the mouth. Specialists recommend not brushing the mouth immediately after vomiting, because instead of cleaning, it only distributes the acid throughout the tooth. <\/p>\n

Prevention and daily dental cleaning are recommended. They assure that a pregnant woman can receive any type of dental treatment, preferably after the third month of gestation. <\/p>\n

At La Cl\u00ednica Dental Polanco V<\/strong><\/a>, with the help of technology, the expectant mother can be treated in the best way and with the right treatment plan for what she needs.<\/p>\n

Through a Fully Digital Diagnosis (FDD)<\/a>, the patient will be able to see the current state of her mouth on an HD screen, so she can address any problems that may arise during pregnancy together with the specialists.[i]<\/a><\/p>\n
