Why Oral Care is Important During Pregnancy
During pregnancy, hormonal changes can increase the risk of cavities and gum disease. Elevated progesterone levels promote the growth of bacteria responsible for plaque, while dietary changes and issues such as nausea can damage tooth enamel. Ignoring these signs can lead to complications affecting both mother and child. At our practice in Taranto, we help you maintain a healthy smile during pregnancy with targeted treatments and personalized advice.

Does the Mother’s Oral Health Affect the Baby’s Oral Health?
Yes, a mother’s dental health during pregnancy can directly impact her baby’s oral health. Untreated dental infections increase the risk of premature birth and low birth weight. Additionally, severe gum disease can transmit harmful bacteria to the newborn during delivery. After birth, neglected oral hygiene in parents can affect children by passing on bacteria that contribute to early childhood cavities. Maintaining dental health during pregnancy is therefore essential to protect both your smile and your baby’s.
Diseases Not to Overlook
Gum disease and cavities are among the most common problems during pregnancy. Pregnancy gingivitis, caused by hormonal changes, can progress to periodontitis if left untreated. Furthermore, cavities can develop rapidly due to sugar-rich dietary habits. Conte Dental Practice in Taranto provides effective solutions to prevent and treat these conditions, offering safe care compatible with pregnancy.
