This article (complete article link to Medical News) is really amazing to me, particularly as a woman. In fact, I hear many women tell me that their dental maintenance declined during pregnancy, and even afterwards. In this respect, the importance of oral care is profound. This article provides an eye-opening, perhaps surprising, fact of that point exactly.
I know personally I am more aware of oral care and keeping dental recall appointments during the time I will be pregnant. I value this information and the study mentioned in the article. If more women knew of this periodontal link to pre-term birth, they would take note. Again, it is amazing that we are in such a revolutionary field !
