Approximately 2 million babies are born each year in Mexico (INEGI).<\/strong><\/p>\n

The IMSS recommends that pregnant women who wish to undergo dental treatment should do so after the third month.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Mexico, an average of 2 million babies are born every year, according to the 2019 birth and fertility census of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI). When a woman learns she is going to be a mother, life takes a 180-degree turn. <\/p>\n

With this news, all the preparations to receive the future baby begin; in addition, the constant check-up appointments with the gynecologist, ultrasounds and all the common care that pregnant women must carry out begin.<\/p>\n

During this whole process, the mother-to-be could forget to take care of her body in a balanced way, since the hormonal change may cause several changes in her body, such as oral discomfort.<\/p>\n

The specialists of The Boutique Dental Clinic<\/strong><\/a> agree that, with all the changes in the body during pregnancy, several oral health problems may occur, such as:<\/p>\n

Dental caries<\/strong><\/h2>\n

During pregnancy, acids in the mouth become corrosive components, which can break down tooth enamel, and nausea and vomiting occur frequently during pregnancy, causing acid to remain in the mouth.<\/p>\n

Specialists recommend that when vomiting, the mouth should not be brushed immediately, because, instead of cleaning, it only distributes the acid throughout the oral cavity.<\/p>\n

Gingivitis<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Significant swelling of the gums, pain when touching and, commonly, bleeding of the gums during tooth brushing. This condition is caused by high levels of progesterone. If not treated in time, the problem can worsen until it becomes periodontitis. <\/p>\n

Periodontitis<\/strong><\/h2>\n

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

Loose teeth<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Contrary to the myth that the fetus during its development can absorb elements such as calcium from the mother’s bones and thus cause the teeth to become loose, the reality is different.<\/p>\n

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 eventually fall out.<\/p>\n

Prevention is important<\/h2>\n

The Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) recommends prevention and daily dental cleaning. They assure that a pregnant woman can receive any type of dental treatment, preferably after the third month of gestation. <\/p>\n

At La Clinica Dental Boutique,<\/a> specialists recommend when planning pregnancy, to consider a dental consultation to have optimal oral health, with the help of technology can serve the expectant mother in the best way and with the right treatment plan for what she needs.<\/p>\n

From a Completely Digital Diagnosis (DCD), the patient will be able to see the current state of her mouth through an HD screen, so they can attend together with the specialists the problems that may arise during pregnancy.<\/p>\n
