Pregnancy

Pregnancy results in many changes and can be a busy time.

While you care for yourself and your baby, do not forget about the health of your teeth and gums. You are more susceptible to gum disease due to hormonal changes which can further affect overall health during your pregnancy.

Watch the video and visit the image tiles for information and tips to help you maintain great oral health during and after your pregnancy.

To learn about good oral health practices for your soon-to-be-born baby, visit the Infancy (0-11 months) section.
