Dental care is often avoided during pregnancy. YIKES!!! This could be harmful to both mom and baby. Every pregnant woman should be screened for periodontitist, counseled on proper oral hygiene, and treated for preventative and treatment procedures. According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, dental procedures such as diagnostic x-rays, routine cleanings, periodontal (gum) treatment, fillings and extractions are safe and are best preformed during the second trimester of your pregnancy. Appropriate dental care during pregnancy may reduce preterm births, low birth weight and infant cavities.

Hey, nice Blog. Dental care is very much important in every stage of life. Dental problems sometimes cause serious problems, so its necessary to brush your teeth twice a day.

one more point i would like to add Mr Samual, most of the time people neglect their teeth problems this will lead them to massive problems. Dental Treatment should be done at the preliminary stage.
