Pregnancy and Dental Care
Most of the women in India do not visit the dentist during pregnancy as they believe they cannot take any medications for 9 months. However ,regular checkups and good dental health habits can help keep you and your baby healthy. A gestational woman requires various levels of support throughout this time, such as medical monitoring or intervention, preventive care and physical and emotional assistance. Getting a checkup during pregnancy is safe and important for your dental health. Not only can you take care of cleanings and procedures like cavity fillings before your baby is born, but your dentist can help you with any pregnancy-related dental symptoms you might be experiencing.
