Dental care dilemma tips for pregnant women

Pregnancy is an exhilarating time, filled with excitement and preparation for your new baby. Taking care of our teeth while pregnant can often be the very last thing on our minds and most of us have no idea just how important it is! Both for you and the new baby, maintaining optimum oral health during pregnancy is a must!

Good preventative care and follow up care are important to keeping your mouth healthy and your baby safe. Always inform your assisting dentist about your pregnancy status.
