During pregnancy, the change in hormones changes the way your body reacts to plaque. This means you are more likely to experience <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/gum-disease.html\">gingivitis<\/a> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/gum-disease.html\">bleeding gums<\/a>) and have an increased risk of tooth decay.<\/p>\n<p>Studies have also shown a link between <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/gum-disease.html\">periodontal disease<\/a> and an increased chance of the baby being born prematurely with a low birth rate. There is an estimate that out of 100 premature births, 18 are triggered by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/gum-disease.html\">periodontal disease<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Other ways pregnancy can affect your oral health:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Morning sickness. Vomiting will increase the levels of acid in your mouth, and retching can put you off doing a thorough job with your toothbrush.<\/li>\n<li>Food cravings. If you are craving sugary foods during pregnancy, this will increase the probability of dental decay.<\/li>\n<li>Calcium and vitamin D deficiency. These are important for your growing baby&#8217;s teeth as well as yours. Some people can experience deficiencies while pregnant so eating a balanced diet containing these is recommended.<\/li>\n<li>Not keeping to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/\">dental appointments<\/a>. Pregnancy can be a busy time as you prepare everything for the baby to arrive, you also have other medical appointments to attend and dental appointments can fall down the list. It is important to maintain regular check ups to help keep your teeth and gums healthy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Be sure to let your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/implant-dentist.html\">dentist<\/a> know if you are pregnant and keep up with your regular appointments. To book an appointment, please call on 01844 343381 or visit our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankhousedentistry.co.uk\/\">dental practice in Princes Risborough<\/a>.
