Altering Daily Routine
Keep brushing twice in a day with flossing and the fluoride toothpaste between the teeth once every day if you’re not doing so. If you haven’t started yet, there is no best time than now, as bad practices during pregnancy have been linked to premature birth, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and intrauterine growth restriction, Consult your dentist about the current procedure and if any modifications are necessary.
Bleeding Gums
Changes in the body, thoughts, and mouth occur as a result of pregnancy. Pregnancy gingivitis, a moderate type of gum disease that occurs most often between the second and eighth months of pregnancy, affects up to half of all mothers. It normally goes away after the birth of an infant. Hormones help plaque more quickly irritate the gums, causing them to get swollen, tender, painful, and bleed. Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes per time, floss once a day, and speak to your dentist about other ways to keep your gums safe.
Losing Tooth
Losing a tooth is not a common occurrence during breastfeeding, and if you do, you probably already have a dental condition. Your teeth, on the other hand, can feel a little loose. And if you don’t have gum disease, progesterone and estrogen will relax the ligaments and bones that hold your teeth in position. Many times, this goes away after pregnancy, but if you think your teeth are moving when they shouldn’t, see your dentist.
Morning Sickness
Morning sickness will strike at any time of day, unfortunately. Stomach acids in vomit can chew away at your teeth, so brushing your teeth after you’ve rinsed your mouth can help keep it from happening. Swish and cough first, rather than shaving. You may use water, a diluted mouthwash, or a solution of 1 cup water and 1 teaspoon baking soda. After 30 minutes, spit it out and brush your teeth.
Dental Consultation
Have an appointment with your dentist whether it has been more than 6 months since your last visit or if you find any differences in your teeth. When you call, do let your dentist know how far along you are, and inform him or her of any changes in your prescriptions or whether your doctor has given you any particular advice.
Brushing and Vomiting
Take it slowly to find out what works for you in a moment when something (and probably everything) makes you vomit. Changing the toothpaste scent, brushing with a smaller head, or brushing at various times of the day will all improve. If you need to swish and spit before brushing your teeth, go ahead and do so. The most important thing is to stick to your regimen so acid on your teeth from morning vomiting, potential dietary changes, and being too lazy to clean put you at risk for cavities.
Dental Procedure
Procedures such as tooth fillings and crowns are both secure and necessary during breastfeeding to avoid infection. If practicable, plan dental work in your second trimester, as sitting in a dental chair may become more painful as your pregnancy progresses. Cosmetic treatments, such as whitening, should be postponed until after the baby is born. If an emergency operation is needed, consult with your dentist to determine the right course of action for you and your baby’s wellbeing.
