American Dental Association Stresses Good Oral Health During Pregnancy
With Mother's Day around the
corner, the American Dental Association (ADA) wants to remind mothers-to-be
that maintaining good oral health is an important part of overall health,
especially during pregnancy.
Research suggests there may be an association between maternal gum
disease and pre-term birth and low birth weight babies. In addition, a
recent study says that pregnant women with gum disease may be more likely
to develop gestational diabetes.
"Good oral health habits are an important part of a healthy lifestyle,"
says Sally Cram, D.D.S., ADA consumer advisor and periodontist in
Washington, D.C. "If you are planning a pregnancy, schedule a dental
checkup for a cleaning. If you are pregnant, continue your regular dental
visits. Be sure to inform your dentist if you are pregnant or suspect you
might be pregnant."
In addition to regular dental visits, the ADA recommends eating a
well-balanced diet, maintaining daily oral hygiene by brushing teeth twice
a day with fluoride toothpaste and cleaning between teeth at least once a
day with floss or an interdental cleaner. The ADA recommends that consumers
look for oral healthcare products that have earned the ADA Seal of
Acceptance. The ADA Seal of Acceptance is designed to help consumers make
informed decisions about the safety and effectiveness of dental products.
"Pregnancy often causes food cravings, and constant snacking on sugary
food and beverages can lead to a buildup of dental plaque," explains Ada
Cooper, D.D.S., ADA consumer advisor and a general dentist in New York. "In
addition, the rising hormone levels that accompany pregnancy can irritate
gums already battling plaque buildup. Some dentists might recommend more
frequent cleanings during the second or early third trimester to control
gingivitis."
Good oral health habits are not only valuable during pregnancy, but
after pregnancy as well because cavity-causing bacteria can be passed from
mother to child through contact such as sharing utensils or kissing.
The not-for-profit ADA is the nation's largest dental association,
representing more than 155,000 dentist members. The premier source of oral
health information, the ADA has advocated for the public's health and
promoted the art and science of dentistry since 1859. The ADA's
state-of-the-art research facilities develop and test dental products and
materials that have advanced the practice of dentistry and made the patient
experience more positive. The ADA Seal of Acceptance long has been a
valuable and respected guide to consumer dental care products. JADA, a
monthly journal, is the ADA's flagship publication and the best-read
scientific journal in dentistry. For more information about the ADA, visit
