When a woman is pregnant, she often pays attention to her diet and nutrition, but often overlooks a key issue, which is oral examination. Oral examination is a big issue and should never be ignored. If you do not have regular dental check-ups during pregnancy, it can cause oral diseases. There are many oral diseases among pregnant women. Here are some of the more common ones. I hope everyone can pay attention to them. Common oral diseases include: 1. Gingivitis during pregnancy: A common periodontal problem during pregnancy is gingivitis. This is due to hormonal changes during pregnancy, which causes the gums to become red, swollen and congested. The gums bleed easily when brushing teeth, and there is occasional pain and discomfort. These symptoms do not occur in every pregnant woman. If they do occur, they usually begin to appear in the second month of pregnancy and become more severe in the eighth month as hormone secretion concentrations reach their peak. 2. Gestational gingivitis: This disease is less common. It usually occurs in the middle of pregnancy. It is a bright red spherical gingival growth formed by significant gingival inflammation and vascular hyperplasia. It varies in size and grows rapidly. It often appears in the interdental papilla area of the front teeth (the tip of the gum between two adjacent teeth). Pregnancy gingival neoplasms usually do not require treatment, or only basic periodontal treatment (such as teeth cleaning, oral hygiene guidance, and root planing) is given to reduce the retention and irritation of dental plaque. Generally, gingival tumors will disappear naturally as the hormones return to normal after the pregnant woman gives birth, but if they do not disappear, removal can be considered. 3. Toothache, facial swelling and other symptoms: Periodontal symptoms during pregnancy may occasionally include deepening of periodontal pockets and loose teeth. In fact, pregnant women with poor oral hygiene and pre-existing gingivitis are at greater risk of periodontal problems. Introduced above are several common oral diseases during pregnancy. In fact, there are many more oral diseases for pregnant women than the ones listed above. The most important reason for pregnant women to suffer from oral diseases is diet. Many pregnant women particularly like to eat spicy and sour foods during pregnancy, and these foods are very harmful to the oral cavity. Therefore, the best way to treat oral diseases is to do more oral examinations. |
